Reinforced concrete structures are vulnerable to high temperature conditions such as those during a fire. At elevated temperatures, the mechanical properties of concrete and reinforcing steel as well as the bond between steel rebar and concrete may significantly deteriorate. The changes in the bonding behavior may influence the flexibility or the moment capacity of the reinforced concrete structures. The bond strength degradation is required for structural design of fire safety and structural repair after fire. However, the investigation of bonding between rebar and concrete at elevated temperatures is quite difficult in practice. In this study, bond constitutive relationships are developed for normal and high-strength concrete (NSC and HSC) subjected to fire, with the intention of providing efficient modeling and to specify the fire-performance criteria for concrete structures exposed to fire. They are developed for the following purposes at high temperatures: normal and high compressive strength with different type of aggregates, bond strength with different types of embedment length and cooling regimes, bond strength versus to compressive strength with different types of embedment length, and bond stress-slip curve. The proposed relationships at elevated temperature are compared with experimental results.

This paper presents an investigation on the fire resistance of high strength fiber reinforced concrete filled box columns (CFBCs) under combined temperature and loading. Two groups of full-size specimens were fabricated. The control group was a steel box filled with high-strength concrete (HSC), while the experimental group consisted of a steel box filled with high strength fiber concrete (HFC) and two steel boxes filled with fiber reinforced concrete. Prior to fire test, a constant compressive load (i.e., load level for fire design) was applied to the column specimens. Thermal load was then applied on the column specimens in form of ISO 834 standard fire curve in a large-scale laboratory furnace until the set experiment termination condition was reached. The test results show that filling fiber concrete can improve the fire resistance of CFBC. Moreover, the configuration of longitudinal reinforcements and transverse stirrups can significantly improve the fire resistance of CFBCs.

In this study, tank truck incidents of road transport of hazardous materials to experimental investigated the potential fire hazard. Real scale fire was to perform experiments for on this qualitative and quantitative data collection and analysis. Particularly affected by radiant heat from the flames caused and damage estimates range investigated accordingly. Flame temperature, internal temperature of tank and emitted radiation from the flames was investigated. The flame of light oil spill caused a fire at a temperature of about $300^{\circ}C$ high in comparison with the methanol by combustion of diesel and methanol, according to the difference, the flame duration changes varies depending on the Burning rate. Depending on spill rate(30, 60, 90 and $120{\ell}/min$) and the longer the duration of the flame important factors for the internal temperature of tank lorry rise was found. Road accident in a fire caused by leakage of hazardous was could the higher the damaged. Therefor, Fire suppression activities should be required in particular to be around.

화재에 취약한 고강도 콘크리트 구조물의 화재 피해를 보다 정확하게 예측하기 위해서는 다양한 구조물의 설계 조건과 가열 조건 하에서 열적 특성을 고려하는 연구가 필요하다. 따라서 이 연구에서는 단면 크기, 피복 두께, 철근 배근을 다르게 한 고강도 콘크리트 기둥을 제작하여 다른 가열 조건하에서 가열하였을 때 발생하는 내부 온도 분포와 폭렬을 관찰하였다. 내부 온도 분포는 콘크리트 타설 전 설치한 열전대를 통해서 측정하였으며 가열 전후에 측정한 콘크리트 기둥 실험체의 무게 손실률과 단면 손실률을 통해서 폭렬을 수치화 하였다. 가열 실험은 비재하 상태에서 ISO 834 화재 곡선을 따라 가열하는 실험과 화재 시뮬레이션을 통해 측정한 온도-시간 곡선을 따라 가열하는 실험의 두 가지로 나누어 수행하였다. 고강도 콘크리트 기둥은 일반적으로 고온에서 폭렬이 발생하여 내부 온도의 급격한 증가와 단면 손실을 나타내었으며, 설계 변수에 따라서는 단면이 클수록, 피복 두께가 작을수록 내부 온도 분포와 단면 손실률이 높게 나타났다. 또한 철근비가 동일한 상태에서 철근 배근을 다르게 하였을 때, 단면이 작은 철근을 여러 개 배치하는 것이 단면이 큰 철근을 적게 배치하는 것 보다 높은 온도 분포와 단면 손실을 보였다. 이 연구를 통하여 화재로 인한 고강도 콘크리트 구조물의 열적 변화를 정확하게 파악함으로써, 내화 안전성을 평가하고 현재 적용되고 있는 내화 성능 관리 기준을 보다 효율적이고 안전하게 정립할 수 있도록 하는데 유용하게 활용될 수 있을 것이라고 판단된다.

본 연구에서는 지하생활공간을 대상으로 풍속의 변화에 대한 축소모델 실험을 통하여 열유동 및 화재성상을 분석하였다. 풍속이 증가할수록 화재실의 온도상승 시간은 빨라지고, 실의 온도도 증가하였다. 그리고 풍속이 증가할수록 화재실의 개구부에서 최고온도를 나타내었다. 화재확산에 따른 열유동은 풍속이 증가할수록 와류확산을 촉진시켜 연기발생과 화염의 크기를 증가시키고, 인근실의 내부보다 통로에서 높은 온도분포를 나타내었다. 끝으로 지하생활공간의 화재시 열유동은 풍향과 풍속에 의해 화재확산이 결정되어지고 풍속이 증가할수록 온도증가와 감소는 빠르게 진행됨을 확인할 수 있었다.

IN order to use it for high-temperature fire, Fireproof boards mainly composed of Ca and Mg used. Korea does not have a fireproof board for explosive high temperatuer fire in tunnel, and it is applying existing fireproof coating. However, when a high-temperature fire(1350℃)with explosion occurs, it can not sustain its strength and can not be destroyed to have fire resistance. Each year, more than 100,100tons of wastes are produced by using Ca as an oyster shell. In this study, we try to determine whether or not to reuse the heat-heated fireproof board.

Nowadays, the use of high strength concrete has become increasingly popular. Thus, the theory of this study gives a definition of HSC mechanism through study factors of spalling occurrence of HSC and solutions of failure mechanism. During the fire goes on, building structure using HSC causes explosive spalling and finally it gets to the breaking of the structure down. As a result of this failure mechanism, it remains to be investigated to prevent from explosive spalling of HSC and needs to provide basic problems of HSC at high temperature.

In order to investigate the strength recovery of fire-damaged concrete after post-fire curing, concrete specimens were heating at $2^{\circ}C/min$ or $5^{\circ}C/min$ to 400, 600 and $800^{\circ}C$, and these exposed specimens were soaked in the water for 24 hours and following by 29-day post-fire curing. The compressive strength and split tensile strength of the high-temperature-exposed specimens before and after post-fire curing were tested. The proportion of split aggregate in the split surfaces was analyzed to evaluate the mortar-aggregate interfacial strength. After the post-fire curing process, the split tensile strength of specimens exposed to all temperatures was recovered significantly, while the recovery of compressive strength was only obvious within the specimens exposed to $600^{\circ}C$. The tensile strength is more sensitive to the mortar-aggregate interfacial cracks, which caused that the split tensile strength decreased more after high-temperature exposure and recovery more after post-fire curing than the compressive strength. The mortar-aggregate interfacial strength also showed remarkable recovery after post-fire curing, and it contributed to the recovery of split tensile strength.

To reduce the damage of concrete in fire, a new type of lightweight cinder aggregate concrete was developed due to the excellent fire resistance of cinder. To further enhance its fire resistance, Polypropylene (PP) Fibers which can enhance the fire resistance of concrete were also used in this type of concrete. However, the bond behavior of this new type of concrete after fire exposure is still unknown. To investigate its bond behavior, 185 specimens were heated up to 22, 200, 400, 600 or 800℃ for 2 h duration respectively, which is followed by subsequent compressive and tensile tests at room temperature. The concrete-rebar bond strength of C30 PP fiber-reinforced cinder concrete was subsequently investigated through pull-out tests after fire exposure. The microstructures of the PP fiber-reinforced cinder concrete and the status of the PP fibre at different temperature were inspected using an advanced scanning electron microscopy, aiming to understand the mechanism of the bonding deterioration under high temperature. The effects of rebar diameter and bond length on the bond strength of PP fiber-reinforced cinder concrete were investigated based on the test results. The bond-slip relation of PP fiber-reinforced cinder concrete after exposure at different temperature was derived based on the test results.

The present study investigates the effect of balcony on external smoke movement of high rise building through the fire tests of the 1/10 reduced model scale using Froude scaling. A hexane pool fire is used to examine the smoke movement for various opening sizes of balcony and temperature distributions are measured by T-type thermocouples. Also, hydrogen bubble technique is applied to visualize the smoke movement near the balcony. Measured temperatures of the closed balcony is 2.5 times higher than those of the open balcony because the external smoke in case of the closed balcony rise along the vertical wall. The maximum vertical temperature of partially closed balcony is similar with fully closed balcony and mean temperature inside of balcony increases as opening size of balcony decreases. The experimental results show that the balcony space plays an important roles in preventing fire propagation and cooling of smoke layer. In order to ensure the fire safety in high rise building design, a series of systematic researches are required to examine the various type of balconies.
