Abstract

This paper introduces a numerical model which can evaluate the fire-resistant capacity of reinforced concrete members. On the basis of the transient heat transfer considering the heat conduction, convection and radiation, time-dependent temperature distribution across a section is determined. A layered fiber section method is adopted to consider non-linear material properties depending on the temperature and varying with the position of a fiber. Furthermore, effects of non-mechanical strains of each fiber like thermal expansion, transient strain and creep strain are reflected on the non-linear structural analysis to take into account the extreme temperature variation induced by the fire. Analysis results by the numerical model are compared with experimental data from the standard fire tests to validate an exactness of the introduced numerical model. Also, time-dependent changes in the resisting capacities of reinforced concrete members exposed to fire are investigated through the analyses and, the resisting capacities evaluated are compared with those determined by the design code.

이 논문에서는 화재 발생에 따른 구조물의 성능 변화를 평가하기 위한 철근콘크리트 부재의 수치해석모델이 제안되었다. 화재 발생 시 유발되는 전도, 대류 및 복사열의 효과를 고려한 비정상 열전달 해석을 수행하였으며 이를 통해 단면 내 온도분포를 결정하였다. 또한, 적층섬유단면을 적용하여 온도증가로 인해 단면 내 위치에 따라 달라지는 재료의 비선형성을 고려하였다. 이 때, 온도변화에 따라 유발되는 열팽창 변형률, 비정상상태 변형률, 크리프 변형률 등의 비역학적 변형특성을 단면 내 각 섬유에 대해 고려함으로써 화재 발생 시의 극심한 온도증가를 고려한 비선형 해석을 수행하였다. 제안된 해석모델의 타당성을 입증하기 위하여 철근콘크리트부재의 표준화재실험으로부터 얻어진 실험결과와 해석결과를 비교하였으며, 특히, 화재 시간에 따른 저항능력의 변화를 살펴봄으로써, 철근콘크리트 부재의 거동특성을 평가하고 이를 설계규준에서 제시하는 단면 및 저항능력과 비교하였다.
