This experimental study investigated the effect of silica fume mixed in concrete blocks on laser-induced explosion behavior. We used a 5.3 kW fiber laser as a thermal source to induce explosive spalling on a concrete surface blended with and without silica fume. An analytical approach based on the difference in the removal rate and thermal behavior was used to determine the effect of silica fume on laser-induced explosive spalling. A scanner was employed to calculate the laser-scabbled volume of the concrete surface to derive the removal rate. The removal rate of the concrete mixed with silica fume was higher than that of without silica fume. Thermal images acquired during scabbling were used to qualitatively analyze the thermal response of laser-induced explosive spalling on the concrete surface. At the early stage of laser heating, an uneven spatial distribution of surface temperature appeared on the concrete blended with silica fume because of frequent explosive spalling within a small area. By contrast, the spalling frequency was relatively lower in laser-heated concrete without silica fume. Furthermore, we observed that a larger area was removed via a single explosive spalling event owing to its high porosity.

In this study, surface spalling and explosive spalling of ring-type ultra-high strength concrete under rapid heating and slow heating were investigated. In rapid heating, the internal temperature difference of the concrete is large, so that continuous surface spalling occurs. However, in slow heating, the difference in the internal temperature of the concrete is small, resulting in explosive spalling at a time. Since the heating condition has a great influence on the internal temperature of the concrete, it is necessary to consider the spalling of the concrete under various heating conditions.

A spalling is defined as the damages of concrete exposed to high temperature during the fire by causing cracks and localized bursting of small pieces of concrete. It is reported that spalling is caused by the vapor pressure and polypropylene(PP) fiber has an important role in protecting from spalling. This paper is a study on the properties and spalling resistance of high-performance concrete with the kinds of aggregate and the contents of PP fiber. According to the experimental results, concrete contained no PP fiber take place in the form of the surface spalling and the failure of specimenns after fire test regardless of the kinds of aggregate. Concrete contained more than 0.05% of PP fiber with the aggregate of basalt does not take place the spalling, while the concrete using granite and limestone does the surface spalling. It is found that residual compressive strength after exposed at high temperature has 50~60% of its original strength. Although specimens after exposed at high temperature is cured at water for 28days, they do not recover their original strength.

A study on the spalling causes of work roll for cold rolling was performed in the cold rolling mill. Performance of work roll is dependent to a great extent on spalling sothat both roll manufactures and users show great interest in spalling. So this paper shows that spalling origin on the roll surface. As being well known, spalling mostlyoccurred due to developing fatigue fracture originated a crack on a roll. But such spalling can be prevented by proper roll maintenance, The spalling accidents have sharply decreased since 1981 because of the use of ultrasonic test to detect cracks on a roll.

In this study, spalling property were evaluated from concrete with compressive strengths of 30MPa, 90MPa, 180MPa, applied with fast heating condition(ISO-834 standard heating curve) and slow heatign condition(1℃/min). As a result, the spalling property of concrete was shown differently with compressive and heatign rate. And It could be separated three as non spalling, surface spalling and explosive spalling.

High strength concrete(HSC) has been mainly used in large SOC structures. HSC have superior property as well as improvement in durability compared with normal strength concrete. In spite of durability of HSC, explosive spalling in concrete front surface near the source of fire occurs serious problem in structural safety. It is reported that spalling is caused by the vapor pressure under fire and polypropylene(PP) fiber has an important role in protecting from spalling. The spalling properties of ultra high strength concrete specimens with various contents of PP fiber were investigated in this study. In results, the content of PP fiber for spalling protection increases over 0.2 vol.% as the concrete strength increases to 120 MPa.

This study, in order for perceiving the mechanical attribute followed by the explosive spalling of high strength concrete material under high temperature and evaluating capacity of endurance of material, targets understanding capacity of endurance of material such as explosive spalling in high temperature, temperature by thickness of clothing, transformation extent, transformation speed and displacement, stocking the maximum load based on the Allowable Stress Design Method. As a result of experimenting the explosive spalling attribute of high strength concrete material, the one possibly causing serious damage is the 50 MPa concrete. In all aspects of 60 MPa concrete, explosive spalling happens. Especially, it is hazardous enough to reveal all the iron bar. All explosive spalling is intensively concentrated on the surface of concrete for the first $5{\sim}25$ minutes, which urges for the explosive spalling protection action. As a result of evaluating the structural safety by the transformation of high strength concrete, while beam assures the fire safety meeting regulation, 60 MPa shows the dramatic increase of transformation, which only counts 84% of safety. In a column, both the concrete exclusion and excessive explosive spalling are concentrated upper part of column, which brings about the dramatic transformation, so it only meets the 50% of safety regulation. Likewise, in 80, 100 MPa concrete which was never experimented considering the condition of domestic structural endurance stocking devices, the faster collapse is expected.

Recently. there has been steadily applied in high-performance concrete using powder type admixture in construction field. It has been reported that high-performance concrete is likely to cause the spalling by fire more seriously due to the dense microstructure. In this paper, spalling properties of high-performance concrete with the kinds of admixture and polypropylene(PP) fiber contents are presented. According to the experimental results concrete contained no PP fiber take place in the form of the surface spalling, regardless of admixture. Concrete contained more than 0.05% of PP fiber and admixture do not take place the spalling, however the concrete using silica fume do spalling. Concrete using blast furnace slag have good performance in spalling resistance. It is found that residual compressive strength has 60~70% of its original strength when spalling do not occur. Although specimens after exposed at high temperature are cured at water for 28days, they do not recover their original strength.

본 연구에서는 최근 사용이 증대되고 있는 고성능 콘크리트의 폭렬현상을 방지하기 위해 일련의 연구 중 메탈라스 횡구속을 병행한 비탈형 거푸집을 사용한 고성능 콘크리트 RC기둥부재의 내화특성을 검토하였는데, 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 유동성 및 공기량은 모두 목표 범위를 만족하였고, 압축강도는 재령 28일에서 80 MPa이상으로 고강도범위를 나타내었다. 폭렬 특성으로는 섬유를 혼입하지 않은 플레인의 경우는 심한 폭렬이 발생하였고, 나일론(이하 NY)+폴리프로필렌(이하 PP) 섬유를 0.05%를 혼입한 경우에는 표면부에만 부분적인 박리폭렬이 발생하였다. 비탈형 거푸집 변화에 따라서는 비탈형 25-20, 비탈형 50-20의 경우에는 모두 마 감재부분에 폭렬이 발생하였는데, 비탈형 50-20의 경우가 비탈형 25-20보다 양호한 폭렬방지 성능을 나타내었다. 비탈형 50-40의 경우는 폭렬이 방지되었는데 질량감소율은 10%이하로 나타났고, 온도이력은 모재표면부 최고온도가 $376.1^{\circ}C$로 가장 우수한 내화 성능을 나타내었다.

This study evaluated the vapor pressure and thermal stress of high-strength concrete according to spalling type. As a result, it was confirmed that the internal temperature gradient of the concrete varies depending on the heating rate, and the vapor pressure and thermal stress of the concrete are the main factors of spalling. In addition, it was confirmed that spalling type varies depending on the vapor pressure and thermal stress of the concrete.
