TLDR
In this article, two techniques are discussed to measure the colour of concrete samples after fire exposure, namely a spectrophotometer and a calibrated flatbed scanner, which are used to trace the temperature history of the concrete, from which the corresponding fire damage can be assessed.

Evaluation of pore structures and cracking in cement paste exposed to elevated temperatures by X-ray computed tomography

TL;DR: In this paper, a series of increasing temperatures was used to explore the temperature-dependent evolution of internal pore structure and fracture networks in a cement-based material by fire, based on visual observations of the 3D internal structures revealed by X-ray CT.

Investigation of some property changes of natural building stones exposed to fire and high heat

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of heat in a fire and high temperatures on some properties of limestone and marble was investigated, and the positive and negative aspects of the property changes that occur in natural stones which are exposed to different temperatures are discussed.

Assessment of fire damaged concrete using colour image analysis

TL;DR: In this article, optical microscopy combined with colour image analysis has been used to quantify changes in colour for concrete subjected to elevated temperatures and measurements of hue, saturation and intensity for colour definition, were taken.

Revealing the temperature history in concrete after fire exposure by microscopic analysis

TL;DR: In this paper, three methods for determining the maximum temperature to which a concrete structure was submitted during a fire are studied, including the physico-chemical transformations of heated concrete with scanning electron microscopy (SEM), features visible under the polarising and fluorescent microscope (PFM), and the influence of heat on the color of the aggregates.
