International workshop on fire performance of high-strength concrete. Proceedings.

Date: 1900.01.01

Summary

These proceedings of the workshop, held on February 13-14, 1997, at Gaithersburg, Maryland, USA, contain 10 workshop papers, as well as the research needs of four concurrent working groups whose objectives were to develop lists of research needs in the topic areas of material, element testing, analytical studies, and codes and standards. The objective of the workshop was to identify research areas all over the world to address issues concerning the fire performance of high-strength concrete (HSC): namely: the high rate of compressive strength loss of HSC when exposed to high temperature; the high susceptibility of HSC to explosive spalling; the current inadequacy of code provisions for design of HSC structures exposed to fire.
