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 کاملProbabilistic Evaluation of Eurocode 5 Fire Design Criteria of a Timber Portal Frame
Structural reliability analysis for a three failure were identified for the frame and limit state function was formulated functions were based on the Eurocode 5 design criteria. Uncertainties in the timber material properties were generated from laboratory test results performed on five commonly used timber species in Nigeria, namely Als boonei (Ahun), Triplochiton Scleroxylon (Obeche), Termina...
متن کاملDesign approaches for timber-glass beams
This paper relates to the mechanical performance of timber-glass composite beams, which take exceptional advantage of the combination of the materials involved. Beam bending tests were performed with beams made from float glass and heat-strengthened glass. Three different adhesive types were used: silicone, acrylate and epoxy. The test results show that, with a proper design, the timber is able...
متن کاملOn The Plastic Design Of Timber Beams With A Complex Cross-Section
For the design of steel and concrete structures, most modern international design codes allow the use of plastic stressstrain-diagrams for the analysis of the bending resistance of the cross-section in the ultimate limit state. Curiously, in Europe and most other parts of the world, timber structures are still designed for the ultimate limit state with the old, conservative concept of full elas...
متن کاملAssessment of Eurocode 5 Charring Rate Calculation Methods
The basic hypothesis for the assessment of fire resistance of wood structures is that for temperatures above 300 oC, wood is no longer able to sustain any load. Consequently, the determination of the location of the 300 oC isotherm, the charring depth, is decisive for the result of fire resistance calculation methods. Charring rate of wood is dependent of numerous factors, such as wood species ...
