ANALYSIS OF FLEXURAL BEHAVIOUR OF RC FRAME UNDER FIRE EXPOSURE

Abstract

The flexural behaviour of the frame under fire exposure is analyzed and it is important to have first-hand knowledge of the works done by other researchers in this field. Various models are required to be studied which enables us to comment upon the consistency of results from a particular model. Models of various researchers have been studied and used. Major contents covered are mechanical properties like stress-strain curves and compressive strength of concrete at the elevated state has been studied. The performance parameters include moment-curvature relationships and strain - stress for beams and column has been studied. Later these results were used to calculate deflection of beam and frame
