A Review on Fire Impacts on Concrete Structures

Abstract

Concrete has been used as a construction material due to its versatile behaviour. It exhibits a high degree of fire resistance. The characteristic ability of concrete structures to combat one of the most devastating catastrophes can be attributed to its constituent materials which make it passive and have relatively poor thermal conductivity. However, concrete structures must be designed for fire outbreaks. The properties of concrete must be balanced against concerns about its fire resistance and susceptibility to spalling at elevated temperatures. In this paper, the causes, effects and some remedies of deterioration in concrete due to fire hazard will be presented. Also, some economical solutions to produce fire resistant concrete will be discussed.
