A Study on Behaviour of Normal Strength Concrete and High Strength Concrete Subjected to Elevated Temperatures
Cement concrete is a complex mixture of different
materials. Behaviour of concrete depends on its mix proportions and
constituents when it is subjected to elevated temperatures. Principal
effects due to elevated temperatures are loss in compressive strength,
loss in weight or mass, change in colour and spall of concrete. The
experimental results of normal concrete and high strength concrete
subjected elevated temperatures at 200°C, 400°C, 600°C, and 800°C
and different cooling regimes viz. air cooling, water quenching on
different grade of concrete are reported in this paper.
