Original Abstract
Based on the compiled data this paper presents new temperature-dependent relation-ships/functions for concrete strength (compressive and tensile), modulus of elasticity, fracture energy, bulk density and Poisson ratio. The curves are designed on the basis of literature survey published in [1]. Comparison of the designed functions with their counterparts found in existing codes, authoritative design guides and literature is presented. Surprisingly enough, functions for selected parameters (namely fracture energy, Poisson ratio and bulk density) were not found in any code although they are necessary for realistic numerical simulations of structural response. For the practical reasons, relationships proposed in this work are designed as continuous functions whilst data found in codes are presented as discrete points in tables. We believe that an analytical formulation is more friendly for implementation into computational models, e.g. for transient coupled thermal and structural analysis and others. The temperature dependence of parameters is an important ingredient of the safe design and assessment of structures undergoing high tempera-ture loading (fire, etc.).
