Abstract

Using the finite element analysis software ABAQUS, the section temperature field of reinforced concrete columns under fire was analyzed. On this basis, the influence of the section size, the number of heated surface and the time of fire on the surface temperature were analyzed. Calculations indicate that the impact of the section size on temperature field cannot be considered when one surface was heated, three or surrounded by fire-sectional dimensions the influence was time-related. When the cross-sectional size reaches a certain value, the number of exposed surface on the temperature field can be neglected. Sectional temperature increased by time and the temperature rise rate is high at start then slow down close by fire surface, however, the rate is more stable all the time at internal surface.
