Computational analysis of reinforced concrete structures subjected to fire using a multilayered finite element formulation

TLDR
In this article, an approach using corotational layered beam is proposed to mitigate fire risk in reinforced concrete (RC) structures and appropriate structural resistance against it has to be ensured.
Abstract
Fire is a critical risk in reinforced concrete (RC) structures and appropriate structural resistance against it has to be ensured. In this contribution, an approach using corotational layered beam ...

On Composite Beams

TL;DR: In this paper, numerical calculations are presented to describe the behavior of a composite beam in which the concrete slab does not predominate and the neutral axis of the transformed section is well into the steel section.

Probabilistic investigation of reinforced concrete structures under fire loading accounting for material and geometric uncertainties

TL;DR: In this paper , the sensitivity of reinforced concrete structures under fire loading was investigated using a relatively low cost 2D corotational layered beam finite element in a reduced latin hypercube sampling framework.

Design‐oriented nonlinear‐elastic buckling analysis of reinforced concrete wall structures using convex optimization

TL;DR: In this paper , a design-oriented numerical method for efficient instability analysis of slender reinforced concrete (RC) wall structures, also enabling the inclusion of thermal effects, is presented and validated using examples with exact solutions, and its applicability to large scale models is demonstrated through an example with a four-story stairwell modeled using more than 3200 finite elements.

Effect of fire on concrete and concrete structures

TL;DR: There are three methods of assessment of fire resistance: (a) fire testing, (b) prescriptive methods, which are rigid; and (c) performance-based methods which are flexible as discussed by the authors.

Limits of spalling of fire-exposed concrete

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the present knowledge on the nature of spalling, add the latest findings from the research of the author, and derive limits within which spalling should not take place.
