Concrete filled steel hollow structural sections (CFSs) are an efficient, sustainable, and attractive option for both ambient temperature and fire resistance design of columns in multi-storey buildings and are becoming increasingly common in modern construction practice around the world. Whilst the design of these sections at ambient temperatures is reasonably well understood, and models to predict the strength and failure modes of these elements at ambient temperatures correlate well with observations from tests, this appears not to be true in the case of fire resistant design. This paper reviews available data from furnace tests on CFS columns and assesses the statistical confidence in available fire resistance design models/approaches used in North America and Europe. This is done using a meta-analysis comparing the available experimental data from large-scale standard fire tests performed around the world against fire resistance predictions from design codes. It is shown that available design approaches carry a very large uncertainty of prediction, suggesting that they fail to properly account for fundamental aspects of the underlying thermal response and/or structural mechanics during fire. Current North American fire resistance design approaches for CFS columns are shown to be considerably less conservative, on average, than those used in Europe.

Many kinds of fire-stop sealants have been used for joint sealing, cable penetration part sealing and fireproof structure finishing etc in building sectors which need water-proofing and fire-stop properties. But, fire-stop sealant itself has no specific industry standards in Korea even though there are so many required properties for the application. So, in this study, for the evaluation, we adopted and applied UL standard 94(UL 94) which is commonly used for the fire retardant testing in inflammable materials like plastics and rubbers in electronics industry. In this study, we demonstrated fire resistance properties of each fire-stop sealants which varied with different formulation, thickness and origins available in Korea. Overall, fire stop sealant had better fire resistance performance than normal construction sealant. And the thicker the material, the better the fire resistance performance was. Because there is no national or industry guideline for fire stop sealant itself, each sealant products showed different level of performances under UL94 desigation. Even certain product had very poor fire proof propeties although it claims it can be used for the application.

High strength steels have been widely applied in recent years due to high strength and good working performance. When subjected to fire conditions, the strength and elastic modulus of high strength steels deteriorate significantly and hence the load bearing capacity of structures reduces at elevated temperatures. The reduction factors of mechanical properties of high strength steels are quite different from mild steels. Therefore, the fire design methods deduced from mild steel structures are not applicable to high strength steel structures. In recent ten years, the first author of this paper has carried out a lot of fundamental research on fire behavior of high strength steels and structures. Summary of these research is presented in this paper, including mechanical properties of high strength steels at elevated temperature and after fire exposure, creep response of high strength steels at elevated temperature, residual stresses of welded high strength steel member after fire exposure, fire resistance of high strength steel columns, fire resistance of high strength steel beams, local buckling of high strength steel members, and residual strength of high strength steel columns after fire exposure. The results show that the mechanical properties of high strength steel in fire condition and the corresponding fire resistance of high strength steel structures are different from those of mild steel and structures, and the fire design methods recommended in current design codes are not applicable to high strength steel structures.

본 논문에서는 해상 구조물들의 화재시 안전성 평가에 대한 연구의 일환으로써 기본적인 구조강도 부재들의 화재시 거동 및 파괴확률을 구해 보았다. 화재에서의 안전성 평가는 부재의 Fire resistance와 화염에 의한 열하중인 Fire severity를 비교하여 이루어질 수 있다고 가정하였다. Fire severity는 육상 건축물에 대한 화재안전 규정인 Eurocode 1의 표준화염 온도변화 곡선과 부재로의 열전달 방정식을 사용하여 부재의 최대온도를 구하게 되며, Fire resistance는 단순 부재의 경우, 간략식과 코드의 활용으로 해결할 수 있지만, FPSO 와 해상 구조물의 복잡성을 고려하여 상용 구조해석 프로그램의 활용을 통하여 탄소성해석 및 대변형등을 고려한 보다 실용적인 부재의 구조강도를 해석하여 주어진 파괴모드에 대한 한계 온도를 구하여 최대온도와 비교하였다. 더불어, Fire resistance 측면에서의 두 접근방식의 비교를 통해서 두 방식의 등가적 성향을 확인하였다. 여기서 Strength, Serviceability, Stability의 세 가지 측면에서 First Hinge, Large Deflection, Buckling의 세 가지 파괴모드를 상정하고 각각에 대한 파괴여부를 확인하였고, 이렇게 구해지는 Fire severity와 Fire resistance의 식에 AFOSM 방법을 적용하여 최종적으로 부재의 파괴확률을 구하는 방식을 통해, 단순 부재인 Beam 및 Plate 예제에 적용하여 구조물의 화재시 거동 및 각 파괴모드에 대한 파괴여부를 구하였다.

While the extruded cement panel has many advantages compared to drywall, it has limited applicability in buildings due to its low fire resistance. However, an extruded panel in which the fire resistance has been dramatically enhanced through the addition of a-hemihydrate gypsum is expected to become widely applied as a partition wall or interior material for buildings. To ensure its applicability, certain safety requirements for use, such as the leaning load by residents, the impact by indoor articles, and the fire, need to be taken into consideration. The purpose of this study is to review the impact load resistance, horizontal load resistance, and fire resistance as required safety properties for the partition wall and interior materials of the extruded panel that includes a-hemihydrate gypsum. The results of this study show that the impact load resistance of the extruded panel that includes a-hemihydrate gypsum achieves SD grade for industrial buildings, and the horizontal impact load resistance achieves HD grade for public buildings. In addition, it provides fire-resistance for approximately 7 minutes longer than the existing extruded cement panel. Based on this result, it is confirmed the extruded panel incorporating a-hemihydrate gypsum has adequate safety properties for use as partition wall or interior material.

By investigating a series of catastrophic tunnel fires, this research aims to evaluate the fire resistance design method as applied to tunnel structures in Korea. It is shown that the current strategy is oriented towards smoke control and ventilation to reduce the loss of life. As structural collapse is not regarded, a general guide is proposed to obtain the fire safety.

This paper presents an investigation on the fire resistance of high strength fiber reinforced concrete filled box columns (CFBCs) under combined temperature and loading. Two groups of full-size specimens were fabricated. The control group was a steel box filled with high-strength concrete (HSC), while the experimental group consisted of a steel box filled with high strength fiber concrete (HFC) and two steel boxes filled with fiber reinforced concrete. Prior to fire test, a constant compressive load (i.e., load level for fire design) was applied to the column specimens. Thermal load was then applied on the column specimens in form of ISO 834 standard fire curve in a large-scale laboratory furnace until the set experiment termination condition was reached. The test results show that filling fiber concrete can improve the fire resistance of CFBC. Moreover, the configuration of longitudinal reinforcements and transverse stirrups can significantly improve the fire resistance of CFBCs.

본 연구는 고강도 콘크리트 부재의 고온 하에서의 내화성능을 평가하기 위하여 증기압 및 크리프를 고려한 해석적 모델들을 제시하였다. 내화성능의 평가는 열팽창, 수분확산, 크리프 모델 및 구조해석을 통하여 폭렬진행과 내화시간의 2가지 단계로 구분하였으며, 해석프로그램을 사용하여 사전재하조건에서부터 화재에 따른 부재의 폭렬 및 파괴까지의 전반적인 해석을 수행하였다. 이러한 해석적 모델 및 해석프로그램의 정확성을 검증하기 위하여 해석적 결과와 다른 연구자들에 의한 여러 가지의 실험데이터와 비교하였으며, 그 결과 해석프로그램은 하중, 단면조건, 부재길이, 콘크리트 강도 등 여러 가지 변수들에 대하여 고강도 콘크리트 부재의 내화성능을 해석적으로 잘 평가하고 있는 것으로 나타나고 있다.

CFT기둥은 강관내부에 콘크리트를 채워 넣은 구조로서, 화재 시 강관의 강도는 저하되나 내부 콘크리트의 높은 열용량 효과로 내화성능을 확보할 수 있는 구조이다. 본 연구에서는 강관내부의 충전된 콘크리트의 압축강도 및 축력비 변화에 따른 CFT기둥의 내화성능을 평가하였다. 내화성능의 평가는 KS F 2257-1 및 KS F 2257-7에 따라 수행되었으며, 적용 부재 단면은 $280{\times}280{\times}6$, 콘크리트 압축강도 24MPa, 40MPa 및 축력비 0.9, 0.6, 0.2를 실험변수로 설정하였다. 재하가열시험을 통한 내화성능평가 결과, 콘크리트 압축강도 24Mpa의 경우 축력비 0.9, 0.6, 0.2에서는 각각 27분, 113분, 3시간 이상으로 나타나 축력비 변화에 따른 내화성능이 크게 변화하는 것으로 나타났다. 콘크리트 압축강도 40MPa의 경우, 축력비 0.9, 0.6에서는 각각 19분, 28분으로 나타났다. 40MPa는 24MPa에 비해서 축력비 변화에 따른 내화성능 향상 효과는 크지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 이는 고강도의 경우 가열시 발생되는 내부 압력의 상승로 성능저하가 크게 발생되는 것으로 판단되었다.
