Experimental Study of Load-Bearing Cold-Formed Steel Walls Exposed to Realistic Design Fires

Anthony Ariyanayagam, Mahen Mahendran

This paper presents the details of full scale fire tests of LSF wall panels conducted using realistic fire time-temperature curves. Tests included eight LSF wall specimens of…

Structural Fire Performance of Innovative Moment-Resisting Connection Joining Steel Beams to HSS Columns

Osama Salem, George Hadjisophocleous, Ehab Zalok

In this paper, experimental results of the structural fire behaviour of four large-scale steel frame test assemblies are presented. Test assemblies were made of HSS beams and…

Performance in Fire of Fibre Reinforced Polymer Strengthened Concrete Beams and Columns: Recent Research and Implications for Design

Mark Green, Kevin Hollingshead, Noureddine Bénichou

This paper considers the fire performance of concrete beams and columns that have been strengthened with fibre reinforced polymers (FRPs). Results from four recent full-scale…

Analytical Method of Temperature Prediction in Reinforced Concrete Beams

Muhammad Rafi, Ali Nadjai

The determination of temperature profile within a reinforced concrete (RC) beam is essential for carrying out structural analysis at elevated temperatures. The temperatures are…
