Performance of Concrete at Sustained High Temperature in Material Applications

Article Preview

Abstract:

The effects of sustained high temperature on concrete properties are discussed in this paper. In this experiment, concrete with 6 types of cement were tested after high temperature exposure. Although, test procedures were the same as past literature, test results showed different tendency. The temperature of 50°C at which compressive strength was minimal were found for concrete with high-early strength and medium-heat portland cement, which concrete with other cements showed no change up to 110°C. Relationship between weight loss and compressive strength differed from past literature.
