Abstract

Recently in Korea, the interest for using window and window-wall in building picks up due to the beauty and utilization of space. But, interior space of the buildings shall be compartmentalized by fire resistance structures in accordance with the Korean building codes to prevent the spread of flame and damage of human life in fire. In case of installing non-insulated glazed window in compartment wall, the flame spread to adjacent space and the damage of human life by radiant heat can occur in fire. On this study, to confirm the risk of radiant heat for non-insulated glazed window in fire, the fire resistance tests were conducted. The temperature rise and heat flux on unexposed space was measured and analyzed.

최근 국내에서는 건축물에서 공간의 미관이나 활용성 때문에 유리창 및 유리벽체의 사용에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 하지만, 건축물의 내부공간은 화재시 연소확대 및 인명피해를 막기 위해 건축법에 따라 내화구조로 방화구획을 하여야 한다. 이러한 방화구획벽에 비차열 유리를 사용할 경우, 화재시 인접 거실로 복사열에 의한 화재의 확대, 인명 피해가 일어날 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 비차열 유리창에 대한 복사열의 위험성을 평가하기 위하여 내화실험을 실시하여 실험체 이면에서의 온도와 열류량을 측정하여 그 결과를 분석하였다.
