Influences of Glassified Micro-Bubble on Mechanical Properties of Ultra-High-Strength Concrete after Exposure to High Temperature

Abstract:

An experimental investigation was conducted to study residual mechanical properties of Ultra-High-Strength concrete with different dosages of glassified micro-bubble after exposure to high temperature. After exposure to different target temperatures (room temperature, 200 °C, 400 °C, 600 °C,800 °C), residual mechanical properties (residual compressive strength, residual tensile splitting strength, residual fracture energy) of Ultra-High-Strength concrete under different conditions including 1 water-binder ratios (0.18), 3 different contents of glassified micro-bubble (0%, 40%, 60%) were all investigated. The effect of different dosage of glassified micro-bubble was studied on residual mechanical properties of Ultra-High-Strength concrete after exposure to high temperature. The results indicate that the variations of different kinds of Ultra-High-Strength concrete with different dosage of glassified micro-bubble are basically the same. With the increase of temperature, the residual mechanical properties increase at first, then decrease. The residual mechanical properties decrease after exposure to high temperature of 800 °C.
