우리나라는 각종 재난현장에서 석면노출에 따른 소방공무원을 보호할 수 있는 장비 및 위기대응별 진압대책이 전무한 실정이며, 공무상 재해가 인정되지 않아 법적 제도적 보호대상에서 제외되는 현실에 있다. 석면노출 기준에 의한 보호 장비 착용으로 철저한 소방 활동을 강화함은 물론 소방 활동상 유해성인자의 심각성을 인식하고 질병 피해보상에 대한 제도를 마련하여 아직까지 인정되고 있지 않은 질병에 대한 이러한 질병을 공무상 재해로 인정할 수 있는 제도적 미비점을 보완하여 소방공무원의 사기진작 및 근무환경개선에 따른 대 국민 서비스 향상을 기대할 수 있을 것이다.

Currently, there are no specific repair methods for RC structures damaged by fire, and repair methods are applied when durability deteriorates due to aging. In addition, a number of recent studies have been reported that have conducted fire resistance assessment of the repair materials themselves, assuming exposure to high-temperature environments such as fires. However, researches that evaluate the fire resistance performance of the repair materials by applying existing repair materials to the actual fire damaged reinforced concrete structures are very rare. Therefore, in this study, a number of existing repair materials were applied to fire-damaged concrete column to compare and evaluate the fire resistance performance with the original cover concrete.

Foam concentrate is used for fire-extinguishing purposes, occurring foam, mixed with air. In huge oil-fire or the efficiency of fire-extinguishing with small quantity of water, Foam concentrate is used widely. However, perfluorooc tanoicsulfonate and nonylpenol that are included in Foam concentrate could be exposure in danger while they were discharged. The purpose of the research is the development of environment-friendly high expansion foam that exclude the dangerous substances and improvement of danger of the existing foam concentrate. The developed foam is analyzed as the environment-friendly foam in indexes of the environment-toxicity, the biodegradation appraisal, and the dangerous substances-detecting. In addition, the performances of expansion rate, discharge rate, and fire-extinguishing are suitable in the domestic regulation, so it is useful for fire-extinguishing in real fire situation.

In this study, the effect of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) on the fire resistance properties of fiber-reinforced cement composites was investigated. The main variables were CNCs content (0.4, 0.8 and 1.2vol.% compared with cement), steel fiber ratio, and exposure temperature (100, 200, 400, 600 and 800℃). The fire resistance properties, i.e., residual compressive strength, flexural strength, and porosity, were evaluated in relation with the exposure temperature of the specimens. The CNCs suspensions were prepared to composited dispersion method of magnetic stirring and ultra-sonication. CNCs are effective for increasing the compressive strength at high temperatures but CNCs do not seem to have a significant effect on flexural reinforcement. Porosity test result showed CNCs reduce the non-hydration area inside the cement and promote hydration.

Geopolymer concrete (GPC), which is recognised as an environmentally friendly alternative to ordinary Portland cement (OPC) concrete, has been reported to possess high fire resistance. However, very limited research has been conducted to investigate the behaviour of geopolymer concrete-filled steel tubular (GCFST) columns at either ambient or elevated temperatures. This paper presents the compressive test results of a total of 15 circular concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) stub columns, including 5 specimens tested at room temperature, 5 specimens tested at elevated temperatures and the remaining 5 specimens tested for residual strength after exposure to elevated temperatures. The main variables in the test program include: (a) concrete type; (b) concrete strength; and (c) curing condition of geopolymer concrete. The test results demonstrate that GCFST columns have similar ambient temperature behaviour compared with the conventional CFST counterparts. However, GCFST columns exhibit better fire resistance than the conventional CFST columns. Meanwhile, it is found that the GCFST column made with heat cured GPC has lower strength loss than other columns after exposure to elevated temperatures. The research results highlight the possibility of using geopolymer concrete to improve the fire resistance of CFST columns.

본 연구는 건자재용 목재의 화재위험성 및 화재위험성 등급을 평가하기 위하여 Chung's equations-III, -IV에 의한 화재성능지수-III (FPI-III), 화재성장지수-III (FGI-III), 화재위험성지수-IV (FRI-IV)를 중심으로 조사하였다. 시험편은 적삼목, 전나무, 물푸레나무, 단풍나무를 사용하였다. 화재 특성은 시험편에 대하여 콘칼로리미터(ISO 5660-1) 장비를 이용하여 조사하였다. 연소반응 후 측정된 FPI-III는 polymethylmetacrylate (PMMA) 기준으로 0.86~12.77로 나타났다. FGI-III는 PMMA를 기준으로 0.63~5.26으로 나타났다. 화재위험성 등급 지수인 FRI-IV에 의한 화재 등급은 0.05~6.12였으며 적삼목이 단풍나무와 비교하여 122.4배 높았다. FRI-IV에 의한 화재위험성 등급은 단풍나무, 물푸레나무, 전나무, PMMA, 적삼목 순서로 증가하였다. 모든 시편의 CO 피크농도는 103~162 ppm으로 측정되었으며 미국직업안전위생관리국(occupational safety and health administration)의 허용기준(permissible exposure limits)인 50 ppm보다 2.1~3.2배 높게 나타났다. 적삼목과 같이 체적밀도가 작고 휘발성 유기물질을 다량 함유한 소재는 FPI-III가 낮고 FGI-III가 높으므로 화재위험성 등급이 높은 것으로 나타났다.

Numerical model on precast prestressed concrete (PC) hollowcore slabs using 11.3 mm diameter 7-wire stand was developed based on finite element analysis. In order to validate the modelling, previous experiment results with respect to prestressed solid concrete slabs were used and compared throughout the course of fire exposure. In addition to, the fire performance of hollowcore slabs with different aggregate types, moisture contents and compressive strength of concrete was investigated. As a result, it can be seen that the type of aggregates and moisture contents used in hollowcore slabs can affect the fire performance as well as temperature developments.

A macroscopic finite element model is applied to investigate the effect of fire induced spalling on the response of reinforced concrete (RC) beams. Spalling is accounted for in the model through pore pressure calculations in concrete. The principles of mechanics and thermodynamics are applied to compute the temperature induced pore pressure in the concrete structures as a function of fire exposure time. The computed pore pressure is checked against the temperature dependent tensile strength of concrete to determine the extent of spalling. Using the model, case studies are conducted to investigate the influence of concrete permeability, fire scenario and axial restraint on the fire induced spalling and also on the response of RC beams. Results from the analysis indicate that the fire induced spalling, fire scenario, and axial restraint have significant influence on the fire response of RC beams. It is also shown that concrete permeability has substantial effect on the fire induced spalling and thus on the fire response of concrete beams. The fire resistance of high strength concrete beams can be lower that that of normal strength concrete beams due to fire induced spalling resulting from low permeability in high strength concrete.

Expanding urbanization practices result in high numbers of buildings being developed in city centers. This high building concentration leads to an increased fire risk, resulting in higher casualty rates and increased economic damages compared to fires in the past. The purpose of this study was to analyze the structural behavior of fire-damaged reinforced concrete buildings using analytical methods and to suggest methods of improving fire resistance in the event of a fire. Damage levels were measured using commercial software to apply the finite element method, ABAQUS, and MIDAS GEN to the dataset. Load-deflection curves were calculated using the effective area and moment of inertia of the fire-damaged columns provided by ABAQUS. The results of this analysis indicate that fire-damaged beams with experience greater deflection from indoor fires than they will from outdoor fires. Fires that occurred on the middle floors were more dangerous than those occurring on higher floors, and eccentrically loaded columns experienced more damage than axially loaded columns. The results indicate that these methods accurately predict structural behaviors of fire damaged concrete columns by considering fire exposure area and eccentric loading.
