Physicochemical, mineralogical, and morphological characteristics of concrete exposed to elevated temperatures
Concrete cubes prepared from ordinary Portland cement (OPC) of known chemical, mineralogical, and physical performance characteristics and fired to various temperature regimes up to 1000 degree C in steps of 100 degree C for a constant period of 5 h have been studied by using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and DTA/TGA to establish the effect of elevated temperatures on the mineralogical changes occurring in the hydrated phases of concrete. The changes in physical state of concrete were studied by measuring ultrasonic pulse velocity (UPV) and consequent deterioration in the compressive strength with increase in temperature. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) studies showed distinct morphological changes corresponding to deterioration of concrete exposed to higher temperatures.
