Marine Concrete Structures Exposed to Hydrocarbon Fire. Spalling Resistance of LWA Concrete
The hydrocarbon fire resistance of three lightweight aggregate (LWA) concretes with average compressive strength/fresh density of 50MPa/1520 kg/cu m have been investigated. The spalling from 150x200x2800 mm unloaded beams was very severe and the average cross section was more than halved after 25 minutes exposure. The prime reason for the low spalling resistance is considered to be the relatively high total water content in the concretes (more than 200 liters/cu m).
