Abstract: In this study, we analysed the thermal field generated on the surface of reinforcing steel through 2D and 3D magnetic field analyses based on previous experiments on the temperature rise characteristics of reinforcing steel, temperature rise characteristics and mechanical characteristics. According to the results of the analysis of transferred heat from heated reinforcing steel to concrete, the actual reinforced concrete was analysed and compared with the actual measurements, and the following conclusions were reached. Through analysing the heat source that is generated by the eddy current and the heat that is transferred from the reinforcing steel to concrete, stress analysis is expected to predict and evaluate various problems that arise when induction heating technology is applied to the site.
