New model for compressive strength loss of lightweight concrete exposed to elevated temperatures

This study proposes a new model for the residual compressive strength of structural lightweight concrete after exposure to elevated temperatures up to 1000°C. For this purpose, a database of residual compressive strengths of fire exposed lightweight concrete was compiled from the literature. Databas...
