Abstract

This paper introduces a numerical analysis method for reinforced-concrete(RC) members exposed to fire and proposes considerations in designing RC structures on the basis of the comparison between numerical results and design codes. The proposed analysis method consists of two procedures of the transient heat transfer analysis and the non-linear structural analysis. To exactly evaluate the structural behavior under fire, two material models are considered in this paper. One is "Under-Fire" condition for the material properties at the high temperature and the other one is "After-Cooling" condition for the material properties after cooling down to air temperature. The proposed method is validated through the correlation study between experimental data and numerical results. In advance, the obtained results show that the material properties which are fittable to the corresponding temperature must be taken into account for an accurate prediction of the ultimate resisting capacity of RC members. Finally, comparison of the numerical results with the design code of EN1992-1-2 also shows that the design code needs to be revised to reserve the safety of the fire-damaged structural member.

이 논문은 화재에 노출된 철근콘크리트 구조에 대한 수치해석 모델을 제시하고, 기존의 자료 및 설계 규준과의 비교를 통해 구조물의 설계 시 고려 사항에 대해 제안하고 있다. 수치해석은 비정상 열전달 해석과 비선형 구조해석의 두 단계로 수행되며, 비정상 열전달 해석을 통해서 얻어진 화재시간에 따른 단면 온도분포를 바탕으로 비선형 구조해석하여 부재의 상태에 대한 정보를 얻게 된다. 이때, 철근콘크리트의 재료모델을 화재진행상태(Under-Fire)와 화재종료 후 냉각상태(After-Cooling)로 나뉘어 해석수행하여 각각의 재료상태에 따른 거동의 변화를 살펴본다. 해석된 결과는 여러 구조물에 대해 기존의 실험결과와 비교하여 검증하고, 설계 규준과의 비교를 통해 화재 시 구조물의 안전성에 대해 고찰하였다.
