Polymer-Modified Cement Composites with Increased Resistance to Elevated Temperatures

Article Preview

Abstract:

The paper informs on partial results of the research focused on improvement of resistance of cement composites towards actuation of high temperatures invoked by formation of fire. Specifically it is an optimisation of cement composites with use of alternative raw material resources. These cement composites are primarily designed for reconstructions of reinforced concrete constructions. Basic characteristics were tested with specimens exposed in laboratory conditions to an ambient characterized with increased temperatures simulating fire in real construction.
