This project investigates fire-induced explosive spalling in concrete, a critical issue affecting infrastructure safety. It aims to develop a sustainable solution using recycled tyre fibers to mitigate spalling, potentially reducing carbon emissions and improving concrete performance in high-temperature conditions.
Fire-induced explosive spalling (violent peeling-off of concrete surface) is a major drawback of modern high-performance and high-strength concrete.
Tunnels and buildings have been seen to experience catastrophic failure due to fire spalling of concrete, leading to huge economic costs and potential loss of life.
Recent EU directives and legislation require adequate addressing of the spalling problem in any new project and all major existing road tunnels need to be upgraded.
However, fire spallin…
