Contents:
1. Introduction2. Fire behaviour of structural concrete3. Residual mechanical properties of traditional concrete4. Residual mechanical properties of fibre-reinforced concrete5. Residual mechanical properties of self-compacting concrete6. Residual mechanical properties of geopolymer concrete7. Microstructure analysis of fire-exposed concrete8. Passive fire protection techniques9. Soft computing techniques for concrete crack detection10. Recommendations and scope for future studies
Summary: Fire Behaviour and the Residual Mechanical Properties of Structural Concrete helps readers understand these processes, enabling engineers and researchers to develop effective fire protection measures and design guidelines for concrete structures. Studying the behavior of concrete under fire is crucial for understanding the performance and safety of concrete structures in fire conditions. Concrete is widely used in the construction industry due to its strength, durability, and fire resistance properties. However, even though concrete is inherently fire-resistant, it can still be affected by high temperatures.When concrete is exposed to fire, several physical and chemical processes take place that can lead to its deterioration and eventual failure. This book helps readers understand these processes, enabling engineers and researchers to develop effective fire protection measures and design guidelines for concrete structures.
