Approach for Modeling Fire Insulation Damage in Steel Columns
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents an approach for modeling the fire insulation damage in steel columns. Both experimental and numerical studies were carried out to investigate the failure pattern and damage phenomenon of fire insulation ...
Evaluating Fire Resistance of Steel Girders in Bridges
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In current practice, no special measures are applied for enhancing structural fire safety of steel bridge girders. Further, there is very limited information and research data in the literature on the fire resistance of ...
Mechanics-Based Approach for Modeling Delamination of Fire Insulation from Steel Structures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a numerical model for evaluating internal fracture and delamination at the interface of fire insulation and steel surface in structural members. A cohesive zone model in combination with contact condition ...
