Stability check of tapered steel beams in fire
Carlos Couto, Élio Maia, Paulo Vila Real, Nuno LopesThe purpose of this paper is to assess whether the adaptation to fire of current proposals/design methodologies at normal temperature is capable of producing accurate predictions…
Experimental investigation on the compressive strength of PFGP-covered concretes exposed to high temperature
Amir Hamzeh KeykhaThis study aims to investigate the effect of high temperature (600°C) on the compressive strength of concrete covered with a mixture of polypropylene fiber and gypsum plaster…
Shear tab connection with composite beam subjected to transient-state fire temperatures: A rational model for design
Mohammad Hajjar, Elie Hantouche, Ahmad El GhorThis study aims to develop a rational model to predict the thermal axial forces developed in shear tab connections with composite beams when subjected to transient-state fire…
Life safety in single story steel frame buildings, part I – deterministic design
Joakim SandströmThis paper aims to discuss fire safety design of single-story, single compartment buildings and evaluates whether time to structural damage is a relevant criterion when lethal…
A detailed investigation on thermal behaviour of slim floor beams with web openings at elevated temperatures
Naveed Alam, Ali Nadjai, Olivier Vassart, Francois HanusIn recent times, the use of steel sections with web openings has become common as slim floor beams because they offer a reduction in weight of the steelwork, accommodate services…
Performance of spent garnet as a sand replacement in high-strength concrete exposed to high temperature
Mariyana Aida Ab Kadir, Mohammad Iqbal Khiyon, Abdul Rahman Mohd. Sam, Ahmad Beng Hong Kueh, Nor Hasanah Abdul Shukor Lim, Muhammad Najmi Mohamad Ali Mastor, Nurizaty Zuhan, Roslli Noor MohamedThe purpose of this paper is to examine the mechanical properties, material composition of spent garnet as a sand replacement in high-strength concrete at room and elevated…
Mechanical behaviour of fire-exposed fibre-reinforced sustainable concrete
Ashok Kumar Sahani, Amiya K. Samanta, Dilip K. SingharoyPresent study focuses on scope of developing sustainable heat resistant concrete by adding steel fibre (Sf) and polypropylene fibre (PPf) along with partially replacement of…
Adaption of active boundary conditions in structural fire testing
Ramla Karim Qureshi, Negar Elhami-Khorasani, Thomas GernayThis paper aims to investigate the need for active boundary conditions during fire testing of structural elements, review existing studies on hybrid fire testing (HFT), a…
