지진에 의한 2차 피해 중 화재로 인한 피해가 거의 대부분이다. 따라서, 소화설비의 내진설계는 반드시 필요하며 소화능력을 유지해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 진동대 실험을 통하여 스프링클러 설비의 내진성능을 평가하였다. 스프링클러 설비의 내진성능을 평가하기 위하여 일반 설비와 내진처리가 된 설비를 동시에 시공하여 그 성능을 평가하였다. 또한, 시설물의 거동특성을 파악하기 위하여 시설별 변위응답, 가속도 응답, 가속도 응답스펙트럼을 통하여 시설물에 대한 내진성능을 평가하였다.

본 연구에서는 뇌병변 복지관에서 장애인 이동형태에 따른 속도를 측정하기 위해서 두가지 실험을 실시하였다. 첫째는 평상시의 이동속도를 측정하였고, 두 번째로 화재나 재난상황을 가정으로, 실제 대피 실험을 하여 이동속도를 측정하였다. 측정결과를 정상인과의 비교를 통해 분석하고, 장애인 시설 피난 안전에 관한 기준 마련을 위한 기초데이터를 제공한다. 실험 결과 뇌병변 장애인들은 정상인들에 비해 평균이동속도가 현저히 느리고 거동이 불편한 이들이 있기 때문에 표준편차가 큰 값을 갖고 있다. 따라서 대피시의 피난성공을 위한 피난 기준 및 시설 확충이 필요한 것을 확인하였다.

국내의 화재로 인한 대형 인명피해를 보면 대부분이 직접적인 화재의 열에 의한 것이 아니라 연기유동을 통한 유해가스들의 흡입을 통하여 또는 대피시 재실자들 간의 사고로 인하여 생기는 것으로서 이글 방지하기 위한 대책이 시급한 상황이다. 이 대책으로써 무엇보다도 건물내의 방화관리자나 건물내 거주자들에 대한 직접적인 교육이 필요하나 건물의 대형화 및 재실자들의 불확실성으로 인하여 교육의 어려움과 무엇보다도 화재의 특성상 실제상황과 같은 구현을 통하여 교육하기에는 불가능 한 실정이다.(중략)

In this study, experiments were conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of ventilation equipment in underground fires. Two type of Ventilators were used in experiments. Experiments were carried out using ethanol square pool fire. Maximum heat release rate was about 460kW. Visibility and temperature distribution were evaluated according to mechanical ventilation. In blower type ventilation, visibility was increased and temperature was lowered.

A fire outbreak in a reinforcement concrete structure looses the organism by the different contraction and expansion of hardened cement pastes and aggregate, and causes cracks by thermal stress, leading to the deterioration of the durability. So concrete reinforcement structure is damaged partial or whole structure system. Therefore diagnosis of deterioration is needed based on mechanism of fire deterioration in general concrete structures. Fundamental information and data on the properties of concrete exposed to high temperature are necessary for accurate diagnosis of deterioration. In this study, it was presented data for the accurate diagnosis and selection of repair and reinforcement system for the deteriorated concrete heated highly, various concrete such as standard design compressive strength, fine aggregate and admixture were exposed to a high temperature environment. And fundamental data were measured engineering properties such as explosive spatting, ultrasonic pulse velocity and compressive strength.

Concrete is generally accepted to have good inherent fire resistance. It mainly relies on the assumption that concrete has low heat-transfer characteristic and spatting does not occur during the course of a fire. However, the significant numbers of fire accidents have shown in recent years that incidence of spatting has caused sever damages to many structures. This review has systematically investigated the behaviour of concrete in fire, including phenomenon of spatting, with respect to the theorical consideration and experimental results. Explosive spatting is caused by the build-up of water vapor pressure in concrete subjected to increasing temperatures. When this pressure exceeds the tensile strength of the concrete over a fire-exposed area, explosive spatting can result in a typical temperature range between $200^{\circ}C\;and\;400^{\circ}C$. The major functions are known to be moisture content, pore pressure, load ratio, and heating regime.

Sandwich panels which are having the both sides are bonded with a heat insulating material with an iron plate are used as factories, warehouse structures as advantages of convenience in construction at economic efficiency of material cost. However, in a panel structure constructed by continuous joining of sandwich panels, a joint portion where a panel and a panel are connected is generated. The joint part is a part which is easily vulnerable to fire because flames easily flow into the melting and deformation of the iron plate during fire. The flames flowing into the panel induce diffusion of fire by rapid burning, causing damage of human life and property. In this research, we developed a flame spread prevention plate to prevent spreading of sandwich panel. This is an improvement of the workability by the anti-spreading construction method of the existing previous research, it can be applied independently to the connecting part where the panel and the panel are coupled, designed to prevent inflow and spreading of flame did. The actual fire test of the test method of KS F ISO 13784-1 of the sandwich panel specimen was conducted and the burning behavior corresponding to the presence or absence of application of the flame spread prevention plate was grasped at the panel connection part and its effect was measured. Inserting a fire spreading plate into the test result panel connecting part is measured by delaying the flashover, prevention of collapse of the specimen, and temperature rise of the opening, effectively improving the fire safety of the panel structure It was confirmed as a method that can be secured. It is judged that panel structure will contribute to ensuring fire safety by applying the fire spread prevention construction method of various methods ensuring the workability and economy of panel connection vulnerable to fire.

The Grenpell tower fire in England in June of 2016 is a representative example of damage caused by a vertical fire spreading through external insulation. Organic insulation materials, which are widely used in external insulation, have the disadvantage that they have good insulation performance but are vulnerable to fire. Aluminum composite panels are used as exterior wall finishing materials, and plastics used in aluminum are regarded as the cause of vertical fire spread. Due to the steel frame used to secure the aluminum composite panel to the outer wall, a cavity is formed between the outer wall and outer wall finish. When a fire occurs on the outer wall, the flammable outer wall as well as the flame generated from the heat-insulating material spreads vertically through the cavity, resulting in damage to people and property. In Korea, material unit performance tests are carried out by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport notice 2015 - 744. However, in the UK, the BS 8414 test is used to measure the vertical fire spreading time on the outer wall in real scale fire tests. In this study, the risk of external wall fire was evaluated in an actual fire by conducting a real scale wall fire test (BS 8414), which was carried out in Europe, using aluminum composite panels of semi-noncombustible materials suitable for current domestic standards. The purpose of this study was to confirm the limitations of material unit evaluation of finishing materials and to confirm the necessity of introducing a system to prevent the spread of outer wall fire through an actual scale fire test.

In this study, the 1/20 reduced-scale experiments using Froude scaling were conducted to investigate the ventilation velocity of the variation of burning rate in tunnel fires. The heptane square pool fire with heat release rate ranging from 3.71~15.6 kW were used. The burning rate of fuel was obtained by measuring mass using load cell and temperature distributions were measured by K-type theomocouples in order to investigate smoke movement. The ventilation velocity in the tested tunnel was controlled by inverter of the wind tunnel. In heptane pool fire case, the increase in ventilation velocity incresed the burning rate due to the direct supply of oxygen to the fire plume. For the same dimensionless velocity($\bar{V}$), burning rate increased as the size of pool fire decreased.
