Many researchers have studied explosion prevention and fire resistance of high-strength concrete mixed with organic fiber and steel fibers. The fire resistance of high-performance fiber reinforced cement composites is desirable in terms of physical and mechanical properties. However, the use of a polymer as an alternative to organic fiber has not been clearly studied. In this study, a slurry infiltration method was used to obtain slurry-infiltrated fiber-reinforced cementitious composites (SIFRCCs) specimens. Powder polymer was used instead of organic fibers during mixing of the slurry. The compressive and flexural strengths of the specimens after 1 hr of high temperature exposure according to the KS F 2257 (ISO 834) standard fire-temperature curve were measured. The addition of the polymer before and after high temperature (about 945 °C) exposure affected the strength of the SIFRCCs. The compressive and flexural strengths were decreased after exposure to high temperature in comparison with SIFRCCs without polymer because polymer create capillary pores due to melting and burning when exposure to high temperature. This minimizes the vapor pressure inside the concrete model and reduces the failure of the concrete model. The experimental results showed that the flexural strength at a high temperature for 1.0 % polymer content was the highest at 53.8 MPa. The flexural strength was reduced by 40~50% when compared to the flexural strength before high temperature exposure and comparing to SIFRCCs without polymer, the compressive strength in 1.5% polymer is lower, owing to voids that are created in the SIFRCCs after exposure to a high temperature.

Concrete building safety of fire is better than other building materials such as wood, plastic, and steel,because it is incombustible and emitting no toxic fumes during high temperature exposure. However,the deterioration of concrete because of high temperature exposure will reduce the concrete strength.Mechanical properties such as compressive strength and modulus of elasticity are absolutely corruptedduring and after the heating process. This paper aims to investigate mechanical properties of concrete(especially compressive strength and modulus of elasticity) with various water-cement ratio afterconcrete suffered by high temperature exposure of 500oC.This research conducted experimental method and analytical method. The experimental methodproduced concrete specimens with specifications: (1) specimen’s dimension is 150 mm x 300 mmconcrete cylinder; (2) compressive strength design, f’c = 22.5 MPa; (3) water-cement ratio variation =0.4, 0.5, and 0.6. All specimens are cured in water for 28 days. Some specimens were heated for 1hour with high temperature of 500oC in huge furnace, and the others that become specimen-controlwere unheated. All specimens, heated and unheated, were evaluated by compressive test.Experimental data was analyzed to get compressive strength and modulus of elasticity values. Theanalytical method aims to calculate modulus of elasticity of concrete from some codes and to verifythe experimental results. The modulus elasticity of concrete is calculated by 3 expressions: (1) SNI03-2847-1992 (which is the same as ACI 318-99 section 8.5.1), (2) ACI 318-95 section 8.5.1, and (3)CEB-FIP Model Code 1990 Section 2.1.4.2.The experimental and analytical results found that: (1) The unheated specimens with water-cementratio of 0.4 have the greatest value of compressive strength, while the unheated specimens with watercementratio of 0.5 gets the greatest value of modulus of elasticity. The greatest value of compressivestrength of heated specimens provided by specimens with water-cement ratio of 0.5, while the heatedspecimens with water-cement ratio of 0.4 gets the greatest value of modulus of elasticity, (2) Allheated specimens lose their strength at high temperature of 500oC, (3) The analytical result shows thatmodulus of elasticity calculated by expression III has greater values compares to expression I and II,but there is only little difference value among those expressions, and (4)The variation of water-cementratio of 0.5 becomes the optimum value.

The paper presents results obtained during evaluation of dissimilar weld joints of creep-resistant steels. During high temperature exposure of dissimilar weld joints, alloying elements were redistributed across the weld interface. These diffusion effects can cause local changes of microstructure and have a direct effect on local mechanical properties in weld interface area. Carbon and nitrogen have the strongest influence on changes of mechanical properties of steels. . These local changes of mechanical properties have a strong influence on the reliability and the service live of the whole welded structures. The dissimilar joints of the austenitic steel/martenzitic steel type was studied. Laboratory weld joints were prepared and annealed at different temperatures for different time periods. Microhardness profiles across the weld interface were measured and the influence of long-term, high temperature exposure on the changes of local microhardness was evaluated. Results were compared with pseudo-binary phase diagrams and with the literature.

scholarly journals Mechanical properties of various concrete after high temperature exposure Mechanical property of various types of concrete after high temperature exposure is investigated. Considering compressive strength requirement for a vertical element in high rise building, concrete specimens with various design strengths of 35, 80, 100, and 150 MPa were tested. Particularly, the influence of incorporated steel fiber on fire resistance is of interest in this study. Experimental results show that the fire resistance depends on the design strength and steel fiber content. Normal strength concrete (NSC) of a design strength of 35 MPa or high performance concrete (HPC) of 80-100 MPa does not spall when exposed to 100-400 °C of temperature. However, an explosive spalling occurs at 300 °C when the HPCs contain 1 vol.% of steel fiber. Ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) of a design strength of 150 MPa and 1.5 vol.% of steel fiber also shows dramatic spalling at 300 °C. The experimental results found in this study can contribute to a better understanding of the behaviors of HPC and UHPC under fire and the role of steel fiber on the fire resistance.

Abstract Microstructural and mechanical properties of a pressureless sintered silver material were measured. The Microstructure of the pressureless sintered silver material had pores of less than 1 μm in size and some silver matrices sintered with nanoparticles between each other. The pressureless sintered silver material could be bonded on bare copper without applying an external pressure. After subjecting the material to a high temperature exposure test at 250 °C and for 1000 h, it showed no substantial change in microstructure and showed a constant Young's modulus of 14 GPa. The pressureless sintered silver material in this work did not show any embrittlement or increase in pore size after the high temperature exposure test, which demonstrated that the material has reliable physical and mechanical properties at temperatures up to 250 °C.
