Assessment of fire resistance performance of composite bamboo shear walls

This study is aimed to examine which configurations of mortar covering give the best fire protection for bamboo-plaster wall system. The research done in two stages, first non-standardized pre-test stage results will become basis determining specimen specification. In second stage, with resistance level tested a standardized test referred SNI 1741-2008 and ISO 834-1-1999. Fire performance was measured according integration insulation expressed minutes. pre-testing bamboo-wall woven bamboo, plaster on one-sided two-sided are evaluated burning time highest temperature reached unexposed side. result shows that chipped cracked conditions affect high vice versa. it found had an 30 minutes, while 120 These indicate condition its location wall.
