Experimental Research on Fire Performance of Reinforced Concrete Beam-Column Joints

An experimental study on the fire performance of reinforcing concrete beam-column joints under ISO834 standard temperature-time curve was carried out, and the main parameters including the load ratio of the beams and axial compression ratio of the columns were chosen to study the performance of the joints. The deformation, the explosive spalling of concrete, the fire resistance and the collapse mechanism of the joints in fire are observed carefully, and several conclusions are drawn in the end.
