RESUMO

According to Brazilian Codes, reinforced concrete structures must be verified under high temperatures, in order to assure the load bearing capacity to allow the safe evacuation of the users and the fire fighting and to reduce the fire spread to other compartments. For reinforced concrete structures, the columns must be analyzed carefully. The significant reduction in the load bearing capacity of reinforced concrete columns in fire can lead to collapse, which could result in global instability of the structure in some cases. The calculation of the fire resistance time of reinforced concrete columns, in the design phase, is usually done by means of simplified methods given by the standards. These methods are very limited and can result in excessively safe solutions (uneconomical) or unsafe solutions in some cases. A computational tool was developed for calculating the fire resistance time of reinforced concrete columns in fire, given symmetrical temperature fields in cross section as a function of exposure time to standard fire. The calculation method was developed using the method based on estimation of curvature given by Eurocode 2 (EN 1992-1-2:2004). The cross section was divided into elements (concrete and steel), in which the thermal strain and thermomechanical properties of each element were calculated according to its temperature. The mechanical behavior of the column under uniaxial bending considered the geometrically nonlinear effects of the structure, which generally become important due to reduced stiffness of the column at elevated temperatures. The results of the numerical analysis and experimental results of full-scale laboratory fire tests on concrete columns performed by international researchers were compared in order to validate the main hypothesis adopted.
