dc.description.abstractSelf-compacting concrete (SCC), which appeared in the 1980s in Japan, is a concrete that differs from others by its high fluidity. The constituents of SCC can be quite different from those of ordinary concretes. They can differ both in their proportions and in their choice. Given the method of installation of SCCs, particular attention is paid to the study of their physical and mechanical characteristics. In this context, experimental tests were conducted to assess the effect of high temperatures on the behavior of SCC. For this purpose, a SCC and ordinary concrete (OC) were tested at temperatures of 20, 150, 300, 450, and 600 �C. Prismatic specimens of dimensions 100 � 100 � 400 mm3, cylindrical specimens of dimensions 160 � 320 mm, and parallelepiped specimens of dimensions 270 � 270 � 40 mm3 were prepared for physical (thermal conductivity) and mechanical (compressive strength, elastic modulus, flexural strength, and ultrasonic pulse velocity) tests. The results showed an increase in the compressive strength for SCC between 150 and 300 �C following an additional hydration of the cementitious matrix. The residual flexural strength of the concretes decreases progressively with the increase in temperature. This reduction is about 90% from 450 �C to 600 �C. The results also showed that the thermal conductivity of concrete decreases as the temperature increases and can reach a value of 1.2 W/mK for the heating temperature of 600 �C. � 2022 by the authors.
