Overview of research on fire effects in RC elements and assessment of RC structures after fire

Procedures for estimating damage and remaining bearing capacity of RC structures after fire are presented in the paper. The paper describes effect on structures, danger it poses loss human lives, financial losses may generate. to structural elements a column, beam, slab, wall, connection details, is Although generally considered be resistant, their physical mechanical characteristics greatly influenced by temperature, while before can determined through number different methods that An overview condition assessment proposed, methodology taking further action presented.
