Abstract:
Strain hardening behavior can be observed in steel fiber reinforced concretes under tensile loads. In this paper, a statistical micromechanical damage framework is presented for the strain hardening steel fiber reinforced concrete (SH-SFRC) considering the interfacial slip-softening and matrix spalling effects. With a linear slip-softening interface law, an analytical model is developed for the single steel fiber pullout behavior. The crack bridging effects are reached by averaging the contribution of the fibers with different inclined angles. Afterwards, the traditional snubbing factor is mod

Ultra High Performance Concrete (UHPC) and High Strength Concrete (USC) are because of the high density of their matrices very susceptible to spalling during fire exposure. By aid of a heat treatment with maximum temperatures of about 450°C a network of capillaries and micro cracks could be formed, which leads like a porous medium to a relief of water vapor already at harmless low pressures and could prevent the materials from spalling.

Abstract:
High-strength concrete is becoming very popular around the world due to its many advantages over normal-strength concrete. There are significant behavioural differences between high-strength concrete and normal-strength concrete, most notably the brittleness and sudden spalling under elevated temperatures, whereby pieces of hardened concrete explosively dislodge. Although all high-rise and even many medium-rise buildings have high-strength concrete walls, the spalling of high-strength concrete walls in fire has generally been ignored by the designers and the fire resistance of walls has been c

Abstract:
Prestressed precast modular concrete slabs function rigid pavement, supporting vehicle loads above it on subgrade with relatively low bearing capacity. This slab measures 2000 x 850 x 150 mm3 of regular reinforced concrete (old production) or prestressed concrete (new production) quality K-500. After several times of use, damage occurs mainly at the end of the slab in the form of spalling. The objectives of the study and evaluation were: (1) observing damage; (2) material quality data; (3) numerical modeling by taking into account material properties, loading and soil conditions; and (4) provi

This paper presents a study of the behaviour of Reinforced Concrete (RC) slabs subjected to severe hydrocarbon fire exposure. In which the spalling phenomena of concrete is to be considered. The hydrocarbon curve is applicable where small petroleum fires might occur, i.e. car fuel tanks, petrol or oil tankers, certain petro-chemical facilities, tunnels, parking structures, etc. Spalling is included using a simplified approach where elements with temperatures higher than 400 °C are assumed to occur and the corresponding thermo-mechanical response of RC slabs is evaluated.

Abstract:
Concrete when subjected to a blast loading from a close-in detonation will experience spalling due to formation of tension waves on the opposite face of the concrete panel. The spalled concrete may be ejected at high velocity causing undesirable effects to occupants. Tests using 1/2kg TNT blocks were conducted on 100mm thick concrete panels to study the effects of spalling and whether the spalled materials can be arrested using a sprayed-on polymeric coating. From the tests, it was observed that without the sprayed-on polymeric coating, extensive spalling occurred. However, with just a 3-4mm t

Abstract:
In this study, the fundamental and spalling properties of high-strength concrete were examined, especially when various types and varying content of polymer resin were added. Two types of polymers were used in this study: ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA-P) and polyvinyl acetate copolymer (PVA-P) as powders and polyvinyl acetate copolymer (PVA-F) and polypropylene copolymer (PP-F) as fibers. Test results showed that the addition of EVA-P and PVA-F to concrete slightly decreased flowability, whereas the addition of PP-F and PVA-P enhanced the viscosity, leading to a remarkable reduction in
