This paper discusses the behaviour of normal and high strength concrete beams exposed to elevated temperature. The paper also provides a simple, economical, and reliable technique that can be used to assess the fire resistance of concrete beams exposed to multi-action of external loads and elevated temperature simultaneously. The new technique was...

... the other hand, high dense concrete will mainly suffer from the uniform distribution through the thickness of the beam. Clearly, the steel reinforcement in low dense concrete will suffer from more distress low dense concrete Table 4 shows the influence of loading conditions on the initial cracking load. The initial cracking load of the restrained beam NSCB12 represents 92.73% of the reference beam NSCB11. ...

... NSCB24, and NSCB25. Table 4 shows that there was no influence of the cooling method on the initial cracking load of the tested beams. Also increasing the compressive strength of the concrete has a slight influence on the initial cracking load. ...

... of Mixes M2 and M3 showed similar results. Table 4 shows the effect of cooling methods on the ultimate load of the tested beams. The lowest values for the ultimate loads were obtained for the tested beams which left to cool in air before crushing. ...

... results were obtained for beams made of mixes M2 and M3. Fig. 7 shows the load-displacement curves of the tested beams and Table 4 shows the ultimate displacement recorded at failure. The reference beams NSCB11, NSCB21, and NSCB31 showed the least values of displacement when compared with the other beams. ...
