  • Assessment of burnout performance of a concrete beam using a novel electric radiant panel [Elektronski vir]
    Jovanović, Balša ...
    This study investigates the behaviour of a concrete beam exposed to a natural fire by means of experiments using a novel electric radiant panel and simulations using Finite Element Modeling (FEM). In ... the experimental program, a reinforced concrete beam was tested for deflection, deformation, and temperature changes considering exposure to a heat flux as given by the Eurocode Parametric Fire Curve. The radiant panel enabled precise heat flux control and accurate application of the intended exposure, also in the cooling phase. FEM simulations corroborated experimental data, demonstrating accurate prediction of thermal effects and beam behaviour during fire exposure. It is concluded that the novel test method offers a practical approach for studying the fire response of concrete elements. The results highlight the electric radiant panel's effectiveness in fire simulation and the value of FEM in assessing the structural performance in fire scenarios.
