Post-cooling Stress-strain Model of Traditional and High-Strength Concrete

EMMANUEL ANNEREL, TOM VAN DEN STEEN, LUC TAERWE

Abstract


As concrete structures suffer from severe fire damage, but may retain a certain remaining loadbearing capacity, it is important to have material properties for assessment by calculation after fire. This paper proposes a full stress-strain model for post-cooling conditions of a traditional calcareous concrete (TCC) and a high strength siliceous concrete (HSSC).
