Eurocode 5 design in comparison with fire resistance tests of unprotected timber beams
It is generally recognized that heavy timber in fire conditions demonstrates high structural performance. Exposed timber chars which functions as an isolative layer which protects the inner material from heat and loss of load bearing capacity. Char has no significant strength, and therefore, as the char layer grows, the load bearing capacity of the timber member reduces under sustained fire con...
متن کاملFire resistance of FRP reinforced glulam beams
Thin laminates made of high-strength pultruded fiber reinforced polymers (FRP) are increasingly being used to reinforce glue-laminated timber (glulam) beams, creating a new composite glulam (FRP glulam) significantly stronger in bending than a conventional (unreinforced) glulam of equal size. Large timber members have long been recognized for maintaining structural integrity in fires and this p...
متن کاملComputation of Structural Fire Resistance of Steel Sections
The main object of this study is to compute the structural fire resistance for several steel members under different loading conditions. This is done in chapter 4 using two advanced calculation models. Chapter 1 contains prescriptions according to European codes, needed for this research. In Chapter 2 the notion of structural fire resistance is explained and also information about the types of ...
متن کاملStainless steel structures in fire
The initial material cost of structural stainless steel is about four times that of structural carbon steel, due largely to the expense of the alloying elements and the relatively low volume of production. Given broadly similar structural performance, additional areas of benefit need to be identified and exploited in order to establish stainless steel as a viable alternative material for constr...
متن کاملLarge deflection response of restrained steel beams under fire and explosion loads
A numerical study on the response of steel beams to fire and explosion is presented in this paper. First, a unified computing model, which can be used to simulate the behaviour of beams under four loading scenarios that involve fire and explosion or impact, is constructed. The proposed technique allows complete transparency of the influence of the various parameters on the structural behaviour....
