Abstract:
Reports on a study into the reduction of strength and elasticity of concrete during and after heating at elevated temperatures. The variations in thermal properties of concrete at high temperatures using aggregates of various qualities are also considered. It was found that the various thermal properties of concrete were influenced by the type of aggregate and further affected when with a rise in temperature it was found that the mechanical properties are impaired with temperature rise.
