Strength and deformations of high-strength concrete under short-term heating conditions up to + 90°C

Abstract

The results of experimental researches of short-term heating effect up to +90°C on strength, modulus of elasticity and ultimate strains under axial compression of modified high-strength concrete of C70÷C90 classes were presented. The concrete was obtained with the modifier application MB 10-50C. Temperatures of tests − +20°C; +50°C; +70°C; +90°C. Lifting speed of temperature during heating − 15°C/h. The decrease of concrete strength under axial compression was installed in short-term heating conditions up to +50°C; +70°C; +90°C respectively 20%, 23%, 28% by comparison with tests at the normal temperature. Meanwhile, the modulus of elasticity decreased 18%, 20% and 22% respectively. The ultimate compressive strain of concrete increased 15%, 9%, 11% respectively at the same temperatures. This work was carried out within the frameworks of the grant of FNI Ministry of construction of Russia and RAASN on the topic 7.4.15-18 «Fundamental scientific researches of the elevated temperatures’ influence up to 200°C on the characteristics of physical-mechanical and rheological properties of modified high-strength concrete of C70÷C90 classes».

Fire spalling behavior of high-strength concrete: A critical review

“…Fig. 3: Comparison between the HSC and the other types of concrete (Data adapted from [36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48][49][50][51][52])…”

“…Multiple researchers investigated the strength properties of concrete contacted to elevated temperatures while also applying preload [44,49,104,171,216]. None of the pre-loaded specimens in their studies could withstand loads above 700 °C; approximately 1/3 of these specimens collapsed because of explosive spalling at temperatures that range from 320 -360 °C while being fired under a constant preload [217,218].…”

Design Strategy for Recycled Aggregate Concrete: A Review of Status and Future Perspectives

“…The production of concrete has negative impacts on the environment due to its dependence on cement, which is one of industry's main sources of carbon dioxide, in addition to its consumption of natural sources of raw materials and rocks to produce fine and coarse aggregates [2]. Cement production and aggregate preparation consume non-renewable fossil energy, and carbon dioxide production is the main cause of global warming [3,4] (Figure 1). The production of concrete requires the consumption of huge quantities of aggregates, as the global consumption of aggregate associated with construction was about 40 billion tons in 2014 [5].…”

Thermal Behavior and Energy Efficiency of Modified Concretes in the Tropical Climate: A Systemic Review

“…In terms of architecture, a building envelope can be categorised into physical form and orientation, opaque system, transparent system, and shading. Energy consumption is most relevant to the heat gain from opaque systems [3][4][5][6]. Heating and cooling systems are among the main contributors to energy consumption as the building envelope plays an essential role in issues of energy efficiency [7].…”
