FRP spiral strip-confined concrete circular columns with ECC jackets: Fire resistance and post-fire compressive behavior
The vulnerability of resin matrix to high temperatures has hindered the wider application of externally bonded (EB) fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) strengthening systems. In response to this challenge, engineered cementitious composite (ECC) is expected to be a promising fire-resistive material for FRP-strengthened structures due to its good fire performance. Against this background, this study introduces an innovative approach by designing ECC as an external layer for EB FRP systems. A detailed heat transfer analysis and experimental program was conducted on FRP spiral strip-confined concrete (FSSCC) circular columns with and without ECC jackets after fire exposure, with the consideration of several test variables. The test results showed that the supplemental ECC jackets significantly enhanced the fire resistance of test specimens by maintaining the FRP temperatures far below the decomposition limit of resin matrix, and also improved their structural performance, including load-carrying capacity and ductility. Besides, a non-negligible size effect in terms of compressive strength and stress-strain behavior was noticed in the ECC-jacketed FSSCC specimens after fire exposure. These findings show the effectiveness of FSSCC columns with ECC jackets at elevated temperatures, providing a solid experimental foundation for advancing the fire-resistant, high-performance structural strengthening system.
