Ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) is vulnerable to high temperature-induced damage
due to its dense microstructure. To mitigate thermal damage of UHPC, this study develops …

Deterioration of concrete's integrity under elevated temperature requires an alteration in its
composition to have better thermal stability. Fibre-reinforced concrete has shown significant …

This study conducted a thorough investigation on the combined effects of fine aggregate
(FA) size, steel fiber, and polypropylene (PP) fiber on the spalling behavior and mechanical …

This study aimed to investigate fire resistance of strain hardening ultra-high performance
concrete (SHUHPC). A series of mechanical tests, spalling tests, thermal analysis, and …

Elevated temperatures, specifically in the event of fire, are likely to cause extreme
deterioration in fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) strengthened reinforced concrete (RC) …

Addition of polypropylene fibers was known to be an effective way in mitigating the explosive
spalling failure mechanism, which occasionally happened during heat exposure of high …

This study investigated synergetic effects of hybrid polypropylene (PP) and steel fibers on
explosive spalling prevention of ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) at elevated …

This study has investigated the changes that might appear in post-peak flexural response.
Before the flexural test, prismatic specimens were placed in a furnace chamber and exposed …

The weak spalling resistance of ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) at elevated
temperature restricts the further application of UHPC and urgently needs to be improved …

The main goal of this research is to experimentally investigate the effects of hybrid fibres on
the residual strength of ultrahigh-performance fibre-reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) columns …
