Under the influence of fire and other high heat sources, a number of changes occur in
natural stones. These changes vary according to the values of the temperature exposure …

Reinforced concrete (RC) structural members generally exhibit a fairly good fire resistance
due to their low thermal conductivity and high thermal capacity. However, under prolonged …

For most fires occurring in buildings with a concrete structural frame, the structural elements
do not collapse during fire exposure, and further use of the building after fire may be …

To study the flexural behavior of concrete beams reinforced with high-strength steel bars
after exposure to elevated temperatures, flexural tests were conducted on twelve concrete …

This paper reports an experimental research into the effect of fire exposure time on the post-
fire behaviour of reinforced concrete columns. Nine full-size reinforced concrete columns …

The thermal deformation of a reinforced concrete (RC) beam in case of fire, when prevented
by the surrounding structure, induce axial forces and/or bending moments in the structural …

The purpose of this study was to investigate variations in the thermal and structural behavior
of reinforced concrete (RC) walls according to the fire exposure time, compressive strength …

This investigation presents an experimental study of the flexural behaviour of fire-damaged
high strength reinforced concrete beams under several fire exposure periods, then …

A potential but infrequently studied hazard is the sequential occurrence of earthquakes and
fires. Fire hazards following an earthquake can be significant due to increased likelihood of …

This paper presents results from an experimental study on residual capacity of fire‐damaged
high‐strength concrete (HSC) beams. Four reinforced concrete (RC) beams, fabricated with …
