| Description | Journal: Iop Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering Self-compacting concrete (SCC) is a highly flow able type of concrete that spreads into the form without the need of mechanical vibration and placed by means of its own weight. It is necessary to know the change in the properties of concrete due to extreme temperature exposure. This experimental study investigates the effect of various fibers used in Self Compacting Concrete (SSC) on compressive strength when exposed to elevated temperature from $400^{0}$C, $600^{0}$C and $800^{0}$C for the duration of 2 hrs. and 4 hrs. The Self Compacting Concrete (M30 grade) with 1% and 0.5% of different fibers (Steel, Glass, and Polypropylene) were used. The results indicate the increase in temperature and heating duration decreases compressive strength of concrete. Elevated temperature upto $800^{0}$C declines the performance of concrete comparing the same with lower temperature of $400^{0}$C. The use of 1% Steel fiber and 0.5% Polypropylene fiber shows significant performance in the development of higher compressive strength and improved toughness at elevated temperatures and addition of fibers reduces the spalling in concrete. |
