This paper aims to experimentally investigate the fire resistance of U-shaped hybrid composite beams protected by spay and paint insulations. Subjected to two and three hours of the Standard ISO fire, the flexural performance of 4.4m beams with/without imposed loadings was examined with respect to failure criteria such as deflection and deflection rate of the mid-span and temperatures measured in the steel section. The results demonstrated that the proposed configuration of the composite beam is able to achieve a very competitive 3-hour fire resistance rating in economical aspects.

It is necessary to obtain a fire resistance certification in order to use Fire Protection Coating in Korea. According to the fire test standards, columns have four heating sides and beams have three. In comparison with columns which are heated four sides equally, beams have three exposed sides and one unexposed up side. So the question arises as to there were the differences between the temperature of up side and others of beams in fire test. The purpose of this study is to consider the positions of thermocouples for beams through a comparative analysis of the temperature data obtained from fire certification tests.

강구조 부재의 내화성능평가를 위한 비재하가열시험은 강재 허용온도로 평가되고 있으나, 강재의 허용온도 설정은 H형강 부재의 최대하중로 평가되는 한계용도와 고온에서의 강소재의 허용응력도 능력으로 설정되었으므로 실지 작용되는 강구조 부재의 하중조건과 다양한 부재의 종류 등의 관점에서 허용온도의 적용은 다소 불합리한 점이 있다고 판단된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 강구조 건축물에서의 부재에 작용하는 하중에 따른 내화성능의 차이를 보이고 이에 따른 합리적인 내화성능 평가방법을 제안하고자 한다.

국내에서 최초로 장스팬 프리플렉스 합성보에 대한 내화성능을 평가하고 그 결과를 분석하였다. 내화성능평가는 재하시험과 비재하시험을 대상으로 하였으며, 콘크리트 폭렬의 영향성과 뿜칠피복재의 단열효과에 의한 성능확보 요인을 분석하였다. 본 논문은 국내 최장 합성보의 내화구조 인정신청에 따른 성능확인 결과이며, 향후 다양한 합성보 개발에 참고가 될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

내화구조는 건축물의 주요 구조부재에 대한 화재안전성을 평가하는 것으로, 국제적으로 내화시험 방법은 실제 건축물과 동일하게 부재에 하중을 가한 상태에서 내화시험을 하도록 ISO 등 국제규격에서는 제시하고 있다. 하지만 국내에서는 건축물의 기둥 및 보에 대하여는 대부분 비재하 시험으로 내화구조를 평가하고 있다. 이는 국제적인 성능평가 방법과도 차이가 있을 뿐만 아니라 실제 건축물 구조부재의 조건과도 차이가 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 내화구조 재하성능평가 기준 개선을 위하여, 국내외 내화성능평가기준에 대하여 고찰하고 이를 통하여 내화구조 인정제도 개선을 위한 기초연구자료를 제시하고자 한다.

The aim of this research is to evaluate the fire resistance of concrete-filled steel square tube columns (square CFT columns) under constant axial loads by numerical analysis. The authors examined the experimental results on the fire resistance of concrete-filled steel square tube columns without fire protection. As the materials of CFT columns, steel of SPSR 400 grade and concrete of 27.5MPa and 37.8MPa strengths were used. The significant parameters were determined, such as load ratio, cross-sectional dimensions, and concrete strength. Detailed analytical simulations of fire resistance and axial deformation showed good agreement with the experimental observations. Therefore, this numerical analysis exhibited a reasonable estimation of fire resistance of the square CFT column. Results of the numerical parametric studies showed that the fire resistance of the CFT columns increased with the decrease of the concrete strength and the increase of the cross-sectional dimensions about the constant axial load ratio ($N/N_c$).

The Fire Protection Regulatory documents require the fire-resistive rating of fire barrier penetration seals be same as that of fire barriers. Pilot application of penetration seal evaluation for K nuclear plant, built before penetration seal requirements were made, was done. In this evaluation, visual inspection and estimating fire rating by comparing installed configuration with tested configuration of penetration seals, called bounding approach method, were applied. Further improvements for retrofit and maintenance are recommended with penetration seal evaluation results also. The practical use of the methodology adopted in this study and the evaluation result of K nuclear plant will be anticipated for other plant's penetration seal evaluation.

In this research, the fire resistance of Concrete-Filled Circular Steel Tube Columns (CFT) was evaluated by numerical analysis. As the materials of CFT columns, the steel of SPSR 400 grade and the concrete of 27.5MPa, 37.8MPa strengths were used. Significant parameters,such as concrete strength, axial load, and cross-sectional dimensions were determined. To verify the accuracy of the numerical analysis,the analysis results were compared with the former experiment results. The effect of the fire resistance time, axial load ratio, cross-sectional dimensions and concrete strength was evaluated by comparison with the fire resistance of the square CFT columns. This research showed that the structural behavior and fire resistance from the findings of numerical parametric studies showed a similarity to that of the experimental results. Therefore, this numerical analysis is reasonable in estimating the fire resistance of the circular CFT column.

최근 국내에서는 대심도 터널 시공계획이 발표되면서 터널 구조물에 대한 방재 및 내화설계에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 화재 발생 시 문제가 발생할 수 있는 콘크리트 라이닝의 내화설계를 위해서는 보다 구체적인 내화성능을 측정하기 위한 내화실험이 실시되어야 한다. 현재 국내에서는 건축물의 내화성능을 평가하기 위한 시험평가 방법이 제시되어 있는 상태이나 터널 구조물에 대한 시험법이나 성능평가는 거의 전무한 상황이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 콘크리트 구조물의 화재손상 정도를 평가하기 위해 현장에서 사용되고 있는 터널 라이닝을 대상으로 화재 시 콘크리트 라이닝의 손상정도를 평가하였다. 실험은 대표적인 터널 화재시나리오 곡선인 RABT 화재 시나리오를 적용하였으며 폭렬방지에 효과적인 것으로 알려져있는 fiber cocktail(강섬유+폴리프로필렌섬유)의 혼입여부에 따른 성능평가도 함께 실시하였다.

The function of fire barrier penetration sealing is highly important to confine a fire propagation a fire severity within a fire area where the fire started. Especially for the penetration seals at the nuclear power plants with the long-term operated history, it is needed to make it clear that the conformance to the sealing requirements has been proven to guarantee the fire-resistive performance of fire barrier penetration parts. If there are any parts of fire barrier penetration sealing which can not meet the required rating for the fire endurance performance, the relevant parts must be modified to meet regulatory requirements. At this paper, the engineering analysis methodology was established to approximate the fire endurance rating for the fire barrier penetration seals. With this study, the method of engineering analysis to decide fire endurance rating for the fire barrier penetration seals was established and this way can be utilized to check the performance of the fire rating for the penetration seal at the domestic nuclear power plants.
