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.

The physical performance of high-strength concrete deteriorates when exposed to high temperatures such as fire. In particular, in the case of ultra-high-strength concrete, there is a high possibility of explosion due to internal water pressure and thermal expansion due to the tight internal structure. In this paper, a fire resistance certification test was conducted for field application of ultra-high-strength fire-resistant concrete, and the fire resistance performance (temperature rise of main rebar) was compared according to the structural concrete cover thickness. As a result, when the covering thickness was 40 mm, three structures did not meet the certification standards, and when the covering thickness was 50 mm, all structures met the fire resistance certification standards.

It is the aim of this study to investigate the fire resistance design Guidelines for high-strength concrete structure for example compressive strength more than 40Mpa. It is well know that explosive spalling due to fire attack of high strength concrete is related to concrete failure. so, the purpose of this study introduce the fire A Studty on the Fire Resistance Design Guidelines for High-Strength Concrete Structures of AIK for the response of explosive spalling of high strength concrete.

It is necessary to develop a technology for effectively controling explosive spalling of high strength concrete caused increasing construction of high rise building and putting up the fireproof standard of high strength concrete by MLTM (Ministry of Land, Transport and Maritime Affairs). Accordingly, it was investigated basic properties such as slump, air content and compressive strength, and fire resistance properties of high strength concrete using polypropylene fiber for field application as a countermeasure for explosive spalling of concrete on fire in this study, As a test result, it was confirmed that PP fiber is available as fire resistance method of high strength concrete.

A lot of considerations on the spatting by fire of high performance concrete should be taken into for fire resistance of the concrete structures. In this paper, fire resistance of high performance concrete is described using polypropylene fiber, which is known to be contributed to fire resistance. Strength level and member size are varied with. According to test results, spatting by fire takes place more easily, as W/C increases and member size decreases. It shows that concrete containing polypropylene fiber has good effects on preventing spatting by fire. In case high performance concrete does not contain polypropylene fiber, residual strength shows to be decreased remarkably compared :o that of normal concrete. Whereas, in case 0.1% of polypropylene fiber contents, high performance concrete shows higher residual strength than that of normal concrete. As member size is smaller, residual strength shows to be decreased.

In recent years, concrete-filled box or tubular columns have been commonly used in high-rise buildings. However, a number of fire test results show that there are significant differences between high strength concrete (HSC) and normal strength concrete (NSC) after being subjected to high temperatures. Therefore, this paper presents an investigation on the fire resistance of HSC filled steel tubular columns (CFTCs) under combined temperature and loading. Two groups of full-size specimens were fabricated to consider the effect of type of concrete infilling (plain and reinforced) and the load level on the fire resistance of CFTCs. 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 results demonstrate that the higher the axial load level, the worse the fire resistance. Moreover, in the bar-reinforced concrete-filled steel tubular columns, the presence of rebars not only decreased the spread of cracks and the sudden loss of strength, but also contributed to the load-carrying capacity of the concrete core.

The fire resistance test has been conducted under the standard fire & loading conditions to evaluate fire resistance performance, according to applying to methods of the lateral confinement reinforcement by prestressed Wire Rope and fire resistance reinforcement by Fiber-Cocktail and load ratio for high strength concrete column. The test result, for 60 MPa high-strength concrete column, It was indicated that applying to the wire rope has improved axial ductility in the fire condition, and fire resistance performance has been enhanced by more than 23 %. In addition to this, in case of applying the wire rope to 60 MPa high-strength concrete column, load can be judged that about 70 % of designed load is appropriate. If the Wire Rope and Fiber-Cocktail is applied to 100 MPa high-strength concrete column, It was shown that the fire resistance performance was enhanced by 4 times as much as applying only hoops.

An experimental investigation was earned out to evaluate the fire performance of high strength concrete column made with different section size. Two different high strength concrete columns measuring 3,428mm in height and with the same tie spacing of 150mm were prepared to evaluate the effect of section size of $305{\times}305mm$ and $500{\times}500mm$ on the fire resistance. Compressive strength was 138MPa at the time of fire resistance fire testing. Based on the test result, fire resistance of column with the larger section of $500{\times}500mm$ exhibited the better performance than that of the smaller section of $305{\times}305mm$. The former withstood against the very high temperature over 240minutes, while the latter resisted during 176minutes.
