The Temperature and Pore Pressure Distribution of Lightweight Aggregate Concrete Slabs Exposed to Elevated Temperatures

Concrete has good fire resistance. However, once exposed to rapidly increasing temperatures, concrete may suffer from thermal stress-induced spalling or pore pressure-induced spalling. Compared with normal-weight concrete (NWC), lightweight aggregate concrete (LWAC) has a low thermal conductivity an...
