Abstract:This study experimentally investigated the seismic behavior of Ultra-High-Performance Concrete (UHPC) columns after fire exposure. The experimental program included six concrete column specimens reinforced with high-strength reinforcing bars, comprising of two normal-strength concrete (NSC) columns, two high-strength concrete (HSC) columns, and two UHPC columns containing steel and polypropylene fibers at volume fractions of 1.5% and 1.0%, respectively. One column of each type was subjected to a 2-hour fire ex… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
