Abstract

The fire tests included fire load and fire temperature had been conducted to nine reinforced concrete frame structures with ISO834 standard heating up curve. Furthermore, the static load tests had also been done under room temperature to the above nine structures after cooling and one reinforced concrete frame structure which with the same shape and sizes but had not undergone the fire test. The experiments showed that the fire temperature effect on the specimen was larger than the fire load. The larger fire load and a higher temperature of the specimen had the larger influence on the mechanical properties such as bearing capacity and deformation. The limit load of the frame structure decreased 36.9% under 600 ; when under 800 , decreased 48%; under 1000 , the frame structure basically lost its bearing capacity, it decreased 57.3%.
