Study on Mechanical Properties and Constitutive Relationship of Steel Fiber-Reinforced Coal Gangue Concrete after High Temperature

In this paper, steel fiber coal gangue concrete is examined for its fire resistance, high strength, and stability, aiming to achieve both green sustainability and resistance to elevated temperatures. We conducted tests on concrete specimens with varying coal gangue aggregate volume replacement rates (0%, 20%, 40%, 60%) and steel fiber volume contents (0%, 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5%) to assess their post-high-temperature mechanical properties. These tests were performed at five temperature levels: 20 °C, 200 °C, 400 °C, 600 °C, and 800 °C. The focus was on analyzing the residual mechanical properties and constitutive relationship of the steel fiber coal gangue concrete after exposure to high temperatures. The findings indicate that as the temperature rises, the compressive strength, split tensile strength, and modulus of elasticity of the steel fiber coal gangue concrete specimens undergo varying degrees of reduction. However, the peak strain and ultimate strain increase gradually. The incorporation of steel fibers enhances the mechanical properties of the coal gangue concrete, resulting in improvements in the elastic modulus and peak strain, both before and after exposure to high temperatures. Furthermore, the established constitutive relationship for steel fiber coal gangue concrete after high temperatures, derived from calculations and validated with experimental data, provides a more accurate representation of the entire damage process under uniaxial compressive loading at elevated temperatures.
