The paper presents the impact of high temperature on concrete with glass bead and zeolite in its mixture. It is desired to reduce the concrete surface temperature when it is exposed to high temperature. In this study, different range of proportions of glass beads (%10, %20, %30) and zeolite (%10, %30) were added into the C30/37 strength class concrete as a fine aggregate and Portland cement, respectively. Surface temperatures of concrete samples were measured when concrete was under about 3000°C flame for a short time. It was determined that, using glass bead and zeolite together in concrete reduces surface temperature significantly under high temperature. The study presented herein provides important results on regulating concrete mixture if there is any risk to be exposed to high temperature.
The study presented herein provides important results on regulating concrete mixture if there is any risk to be exposed to high temperature. The main research question is “Is it possible to reduce surface temperature of concrete when it is exposed to very high temperature by using glass bead and zeolite in concrete mixture”.
10 different types of concrete mixtures were designed to study the effects of concrete and zeolite on compressive strength and surface temperatures of concrete.
It was determined that using glass bead as a fine aggregate and zeolite, significantly affects concrete surface temperature and temperature differences of both sides when concrete is exposed to very high temperature.
Using glass bead and zeolite in concrete for fire resistance hasn’t been searched before. In this study it was determined that it is possible to get lower surface temperatures by using glass bead and zeolite in concrete mixture. The ideal proportion was %20 for glass bead and %30 for zeolite in the mixture to obtain lowest surface temperatures and meet the compressive strength requirements. These types of mixtures can also be examined for concrete pavements to get lower temperature gradients in summer and obtain less thermal cracking on concrete road.
