Abstract:

This article presents the results of tests conducted to identify the failure process and evaluate the deformation of axially compressed concrete specimens modified with polypropylene fibers (PP). The test specimens were previously stored at ambient temperature and subjected to fire temper-atures of 300 °C, 450 °C, and 600 °C. Acoustic emission (AE) signals were recorded during loading, along with force and strain measurements. The recorded AE signals were analyzed using the k-means clustering method. The compilation of the test results made it possible to determine the classes of signals characteristic of different stages of the material failure process and to indicate the differences in the failure mechanisms of specimens stored under ambient conditions and subjected to fire temperatures. Digital image correlation (DIC) measurements were conducted during the strength tests. A numerical model of the material (FEM) was also prepared, and a comparison of the obtained results was carried out.
