Research Abstract |
This study discusses numerical simulation of the thermal stress as well as experimental results establishing thermal and mechanical properties of high volume fly ash (HVFA) concrete of 50% replacement of cement by fly ash. To examine the crack resistance of the HVFA concrete at early age, a uniaxial tension test was performed and tensile properties such as tensile strength and tensile Young's modulus were quantified. Adiabatic temperature rise and CTE tests were also conducted to provide more evidence of the thermal properties. The thermal and mechanical properties of HVFA concrete were adopted in a Finite Element (FE) simulation. The numerical simulation confirmed the favorable thermal properties contributing to decrease of thermal stress.
