Microstructure of concrete subjected to elevated temperatures: physico-chemical changes and analysis techniques
ABSTRACT The exposure of concrete to high temperatures, such as in a fire, leads to physical and chemical changes, which may cause deterioration of mechanical properties, cracking and spalling. This paper presents a critical review of microstructural changes in concrete exposed to high temperature....
