Timber under real fire conditions – the influence of oxygen content and gas velocity on the charring behavior
Joachim Schmid, Alessandro Santomaso, Daniel Brandon, Ulf Wickström, Andrea FrangiThe purpose of this study is to investigate the influencing factors on the charring behaviour of timber, the char layer and the charring depth in non-standard fires.
Experimental study of two-way post-tensioned flat slabs in fire
Li Zhang, Ya Wei, Francis Tat Kwong Au, Jing LiThis study aims to investigate the influence of tendon layout, pre-stressing force, bond condition and concrete spalling on the structural behaviour of two-way post-tensioned flat…
Design criteria for insulation materials applied in timber frame assemblies
Mattia Tiso, Alar JustInsulation materials’ contribution to the fire resistance of timber frame assemblies may vary considerably. At present, Eurocode 5 provides a model for fire design of the…
