Experimental study on post-fire mechanical properties and fracture behavior of Q690 steel
Highlights Post-fire tension tests were performed on Q690 steel under plane strain state. Post-fire tension tests were performed on Q690 steel under generalized tension state. Post-fire stress state-dependent strain to fracture surface for Q690 steel was obtained. Stress states influence post-fire ultimate strength of Q690 steel.
Abstract Fire is one of the most dangerous disasters for high-strength steel structures. After a fire event, the deterioration of mechanical properties of high-strength steel together with the complex stress state generated by external loading may lead to an unexpected failure or collapse of high-strength steel structures. Therefore, it is very critical to evaluate the post-fire behavior of high-strength steel considering stress state effects. This study conducted a series of tests on the Q690 steel specimens after being exposed to high temperatures ranging from 200 to 1000°C with different cooling methods including air-cooling and water-cooling methods. The tested specimens including smooth round specimens, notched round specimens, and grooved plate specimens were designed to consider the failure mode in axisymmetric stress state and plane strain state. To validate the accuracy of the test results, the mechanical properties such as yield strength, ultimate strength, elastic modulus, and ultimate strain were first compared with other test results reported in the literature. The post-fire ultimate strength under different stress states was obtained directly from the test results. Then, the post-fire equivalent plastic strain at fracture of different specimens was obtained from test data together with the finite element analysis results and analyzed under different stress triaxialities and Lode angle parameters. According to this study, an increase in stress triaxiality can result in an increase in ultimate strength but a decrease in the equivalent plastic strain at fracture for Q690 steel after fire. When the exposed temperature was not higher than 800°C, the post-fire strength of the plane strain specimen (Grooved Plane Specimen) was higher than that of the axisymmetric tension specimen (Notched Round Specimen) under a similar stress triaxiality; however, for their post-fire equivalent plastic strain at fracture, the results were opposite.
