RISDesign Equations for Evaluating Fire Resistance of SFRC-Filled HSS Columns
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Computer programs were developed and used to investigate the influence of various factors on the fire resistance of steel hollow structural section columns filled with steel fiber-reinforced concrete. Results from the ...
Rational Approach for Evaluating Fire Resistance of FRP-Strengthened Concrete Beams
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a rational approach for evaluating the fire resistance of reinforced concrete (RC) beams strengthened with different types of fiber-reinforced polymers (FRP). This approach is based on conventional fire ...
Modeling Shear Failure in Precast Prestressed Concrete Hollowcore Slabs under Fire Conditions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Prestressed concrete (PC) hollowcore slabs when exposed to fire are susceptible to failure under shear limit state. However, current approaches do not consider shear limit state in evaluating failure of hollowcore slabs ...
Effect of Temperature on Thermal Properties of High-Strength Concrete
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: For use in fire resistance calculations, the relevant thermal properties of high-strength concrete (HSC) were determined as a function of temperature. These properties included the thermal conductivity, specific heat, ...
Research Toward Use of Unprotected Steel Structures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: When exposed to fire, steel loses stiffness and strength; to limit this loss of strength and stiffness, external fire protection is provided to the steel structural members to satisfy required fire resistance ratings. ...

Evaluating the Fire Response of Concrete Beams Strengthened with Near-Surface-Mounted FRP Reinforcement
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents an approach for evaluating the fire response of reinforced concrete (RC) beams strengthened with near-surface-mounted (NSM) fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) reinforcement. The model is based on a macroscopic ...
Numerical Model for Tracing the Response of FRP-Strengthened RC Beams Exposed to Fire
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the development of a numerical model for evaluating the performance of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP)-strengthened RC beams under fire conditions. The model is based on a macroscopic finite-element ...
Evaluation of Fire Endurance of Concrete Slabs Reinforced with Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Bars
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: One of the major safety requirements in the design of buildings is the provision of appropriate fire endurance of structural members. To assess and develop information on the fire endurance of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) ...
Response of Restrained Concrete Beams under Design Fire Exposure
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Results from fire resistance experiments on six RC beams are presented in this paper. The test variables included concrete strength (permeability), support conditions, fire scenario, and load ratio. Data from fire tests ...
