Engineering structures can be
exposed to high temperature effects due to fire and similar reasons during
their lifetime and they can lose their strength significantly. This case
suggests that structural behavior of structures under high temperature effects
should be evaluated. If failure has not occurred, structural damage status and
the decision on whether to continue the use of the structure are very
important. Because, there is a certain degree of decrease in the strength and
stiffness of the structural elements. Within this scope, studies are carried
out to determine the dynamic characteristic (natural frequency, mode shape and
damping ratio) changes that will occur due to fire or similar high temperature
effects, to make damage estimates and to determine the usage status due to the
changes in the stiffness. This study was carried out to expand the studies on
“Temperature Effect in Structural Health Monitoring”. In the study, the changes
in natural frequency values of the first two modes of reinforced concrete columns
exposed to fire from all side surfaces were examined and the data obtained as a
result of numerical analysis were evaluated comparatively. As a result of the
investigations, it is observed that the increase in duration of exposure to the
temperature caused a decrease in natural frequency values of the columns. It is
also understood that the size of the column cross-section is effective in this
reduction amount.
