This recommendation is valid for structural applications
of concrete under service and accident conditions.
This document presents test parameters (material and
environmental), and test procedures for determining the
modulus of elasticity of concrete cylinders at constant
temperature Tmax after first heating or after cooling from
Tmax to ambient. The test temperatures range from 20 to
750°C or above. The modulus of elasticity can be
determined for specimens heated with or without a constant
uniaxial compressive externally applied load, see Ref. 1.
