In this paper a case study about concrete strength assessment of bridge structure experiencing fire is discussed. Assessment methods include activities of visual inspection, concrete testing by Hammer Test, Ultrasonic Pulse Velocity Test, and Core Test. Then, test results are compared with the requirement of RSNI T-12-2004. Test results show that surface concrete at the location of fire deteriorates so that its quality is decreased into the category of Very Poor with ultrasonic pulse velocity ranges between 1,14 – 1,74 km/s. From test results also it can be known that concrete compressive strength of inner part of bridge pier ranges about 267 – 274 kg/cm2 and concrete compressive strength of beam and plate experiencing fire directly is about 173 kg/cm2 and 159 kg/cm2. It can be concluded that surface concrete strength at the location of fire does not meet the requirement of RSNI T-12-2004. So, repair on surface concrete of pier, beam, and plate at the location of fire is required.

There is a necessity for a modern method to evaluate the insitu strength of concrete thereby increasing the rate of productivity in concrete industry. This method can address immediate challenges faced such as predicting right time for formwork removal, post-tensioning, at low temperatures while the strength gain of concrete is hindered, optimizing concrete mix design and cold weather protection. The temperature is measured using wireless sensor that offers a simple solution to concrete maturity monitoring. The temperature and humidity on various days is observed. The compressive strength at 1,3,7,14 and 28 day is observed. This paper includes calculation of maturity index using Nurse-Saul equation. A graph is plot between maturity index and compressive strength. The best fit strength-maturity equation is chosen based upon the obtained curve and thereby the in-situ strength of concrete is evaluated.
