Effect of Temperature on High Strength Reinforced Concrete
Mushtaque Ahmad, Kunal Kumar, Akhilesh Kumar
Abstract
Buildings with a lot of height are frequently constructed with high-strength concrete. Extreme temperatures will be applied to the concrete components of the structure, including the walls, slab, and columns, in the event of an unplanned fire. Understanding how exposure to excessive temperatures alters the characteristics of concrete is crucial for evaluating the performance of reinforced concrete members in high-rise structures. Investigating the impact of the kind of binder material on the characteristics of the concrete during enhanced temperature exposure is increasingly essential since the high-strength concrete produced may contain other binder materials in addition to cement. The deterioration of high-strength concrete's strengths and stiffness in respect to the type of binder material is outlined and discussed in this research. The outcomes demonstrated that the kind of binder material greatly affects how well high-strength concrete performs, especially when temperatures are below 800oC. At 1000 degrees Celsius, the choice of binder material has much less of an impact.
