A review of the durability aspects for self-compacting concrete
(6 ° Congreso Euroamericano de Patología de la Construcción, Tecnología de Rehabilitación y Gestión del Patrimonio, REHABEND 2016, 2016-05-27)This article presents a literature review concerning the durability of self-compacting concrete (SCC), making a comparison between this new type of concrete and the vibrated concrete (VC). The degradation mechanisms that ... -
Analysis of the fire resistance of normal wooden doors exposed to fire conditions
(Corporación Universidad de la Costa, 2020-09)Meeting passive and active protection requirements in buildings has brought about demands for new systems, materials, equipment, and even design requirements like the access to housing units with doors that have a minimum ... -
Comparative experimental analysis of the fire resistance of sandwich panels with polyisocyanourate core reinforced with fiberglass fabric
(Elsevier BVUnited Kingdom, 2022)Sandwich panels are systems with structural functions that are used in the field of civil construction, currently, they are used in the construction of buildings and also as cladding for walls, ceilings, among others. This ... -
Comparison of the fire resistance behaviour of structural insulated panels with expanded polystyrene core treated with intumescent coating
(Corporación Universidad de la Costa, 2021-03-29)It is necessary to study fire safety in buildings because the lack of knowledge in the behavior of materials has taken too many lives. However, this field has designed innovating construction systems and materials such as ... -
Experimental analysis of fire resistance of mortar coatings on structural masonry walls
(Corporación Universidad de la Costa, 2020)The discussion on fire safety is necessary in Brazilian buildings. Current legislation requires construction with compartmentalized areas separated by walls with structural ceramic blocks capable of resisting fire for an ... -
Fire resistance performance of concrete-PVC panels with polyvinyl chloride (PVC) stay in place (SIP) formwork
(Universidad de la Costa, 2019-07-26)Stay-in-place (SIP) formwork is a more-practical alternative to traditional steel or wood formworks due to its improved constructability and durability. The aim of this paper was to study the fire resistance performances ... -
Influence of curing time on the fire performance of solid reinforced concrete plates
(Corporación Universidad de la Costa, 2020-01-07)When reinforced concrete elements are subjected to high temperatures, such as in a fire, they are susceptible to physical and chemical changes that cause spalling, thereby undermining their performance under such conditions. ... -
Verification of the influence of loading and mortar coating thickness on resistance to high temperatures due to fire on load-bearing masonries with clay tiles
(Materials, 2019-11-07)Masonry has been widely used as a construction method. However, there is a lack of information on its fire behavior due to the multitude of variables that could influence this method. Thispaperaimedtoidentifytheinfluenceofl ...
