Surface area of the steel member exposed to fire differs according to type and size of the section and the kind of the member, which shows a big difference in the temperature rise of the steel by fire. The section factor ($H_p$/A) is determined by factors such as type, size, and member of the steel and type of the fire protection material, and it is the criteria in determining thickness of the fire protection material. This study showed that the size of the steel increase regardless of the steel type, the section factor decrease. In the results on fire protection thickness of the steel according to the section factor, the efficiency of 1 hour fire protection was lower from 30 to 50% than the criteria. And there is the member, which have the thickness lower the minimum 27% in 2 hour fire protection, but it generally approached in the criteria. In case of H-shape steel, the efficiency of 3 hour fire protection was suitable for the criteria, but rectangular hollow steel section and circular hollow steel section were higher (5.0-17.5%) than the criteria.

Recently, high performance(strength) steels have been utilized to structural materials in buildings and bridges with the demand for high-rise and long-span of main structures. This paper is a series of basic study for the design specification of structural members using high performance steel, material properties of high performance rolled steel building structures; material properties of HSA800 steel was compared with the requirements of Korean Standards(KS) for HSA800. Welded H-shape stub columns with variables of width-to-thickness ratios are planned in order to investigate the local buckling behaviors and check the current design limit of width-to-thickness ratio and uniaxial compressive tests are carried out. In addition, the buckling behaviors of stub columns obtained finite element analysis were compared with those of test results.

Steel encased composite columns have been used for buildings and piers of bridges. Since the column section for the pier is relatively larger than that of building columns, economical steel ratio needs to be investigated for the required performance. Composite action between concrete and embedded steel sections can be obtained by bond and friction. However, the behavior of the column depends on the load introduction mechanism. Compression can be applied to concrete section, steel section and composite section. In this paper, experiments on shear strength of the steel encased composite column were performed to study the effect of confinement by transverse reinforcements, mechanical interlock by holes, and shear connectors. Bond strength obtained from the tests showed considerably higher value than the design value. Confinement, mechanical interlock and stud connectors Increased the shear strength and these values can be used effectively to obtain composite action of Steel Reinforced Concrete(SRC) columns.

In this study, stub columns subjected to concentrical and eccentrical loads were tested to check the applicability of the current local stability criteria (KBC2009, AISC2005) to 800MPa high-strength steel (HSA800). The key test variables in the concentrically loaded tests included the plate-edge restraints and the width-to-thickness ratio normalized by the yield strength of steel. Specimens made of ordinary steel (SM490) were also tested for comparative purposes. Eccentrically loaded stub column tests were conducted for a range of the P-M combinations by controlling the loading eccentricity. All the concentrically loaded specimens with non-compact and slender sections developed sufficient strengths according to the current local stability criteria. All the eccentrically loaded specimens with non-compact H sections also exhibited a sufficient P-M interaction strength that was even higher than that of compact H- section counterparts. Residual stresses were also measured by using the non-destructive indentation method to demonstrate their dependency or independency on the steel material's yield strength. The measured results of this study also indicated that the magnitude of residual stresses bears no strong relation to the yield strength of the steel material.

This paper aims to evaluate the yield stress of SM570TMC concrete-filed H-shape steel columns subjected to axial force. These columns were evaluated and compared using quasi-static tests. The displacements and the axial loads column specimens were measured during the tests, and test results showed that the yield stress of concrete-filed H-shape steel columns subjected to axial load could be predicted using the previously proposed yield stress of steel columns.

In this study, lateral-torsional buckling (LTB) strength of high-strength H-beams built up from 800MPa tensile-strength steel was experimentally and analytically evaluated according to current lateral stability provisions (KBC 2009, AISC-LRFD 2010). The motivation was to evaluate whether or not current LTB provisions, which were originally developed for ordinary steel with different stress-strain characteristics, are still applicable to high-strength steel. Two sets of compact-section specimens with relatively low (Set A) or high (Set B) warping stiffness were prepared and tested under uniform moment loading. Laterally unbraced lengths of the test specimens were controlled such that inelastic LTB could be induced. All specimens exhibited LTB strength exceeding the minimum limit required by current provisions by a sufficient margin. Moreover, some specimen in Set A reached a rotation capacity required for plastic design, although its laterally unbraced length belonged to the inelastic LTB range. All the test results indicated that extrapolation of current provisions to high-strength steel is conservative. In order to further analyze the test results, the relationship between inelastic moment and laterally unbraced length was also derived in explicit form for both ordinary- and high-strength steel based on the effective tangent modulus of inelastic section. The analytical relationship derived again showed that extrapolation of current laterally unbraced length limit leads to a conservative design in the case of high-strength steel and that the laterally unbraced length to control the inelastic LTB behavior of high-strength steel beam should be specified by including its unique post-yield strain-hardening characteristics.

The use of a built-up H-beam (BH) that can easily manufacture a section is increasing. This is a basic study on standardization of BH. It confirmed the material properties of SM490 and SM520 steel such as yield strength, tensile strength, elongation, charpy absorbed energy, and else. The six BH specimens were manufactured with single-SAW or tandem-SAW. The welding performance was confirmed by collecting the macroscopic specimen and T-bar tensile specimen form the BH. As a result of the material property test, the properties of SM490 and SM520 which are made in Korea both satisfied the KS. As a result of the welding performance experiment, it is determined that the weld zone of BH has sufficient welding performance. Therefore, they are determined that the SM490 and SM520 steel are a proper material of BH, and the single-SAW and the tandem-SAW show a sufficient welding performance.

When it comes to slim floor using asymmetric H-beam, it was designed that the steel member is embedded in concrete with relatively low thermal conductivity so as to minimize the deterioration of rigidity of steel member in fire. But given the bottom flange of asymmetric H-beam is directly exposed to the fire, the measure of applying the fireproof coating to improve the fire rate performance of slim floor beam was sought. The test was aimed at comparing the fireproof performance by adjusting the load ratio of 0.4 and 0.3, and The test was carried out to identify the 3-hour fire performance by reinforcing the beam as well as applying the fireproof coat, In the wake of comparing the specimen depending on variation of load ratio, lowering load ratio by 0.1 resulted in difference of 12 minutes and deflection was 39 mm. It was able to improve 12 minutes by reinforcing the beam and up to 102.4 mm in deflection.

Recently the requirements of the buildings built with structural steel were increased in terms of structural stabilities and fire resistance at severe fire conditions. To meet the building regulations of fire resistance, a fire design is needed. This is of a prescriptive method and a performance engineering based method. Recently a simple calculation method as one of performance based engineering method is very popular because of its ease for an application in building built with structural steel. But, in Korea the performance based engineering method is not allowed yet. Thus it is needed to make a guideline for the performance based engineering method. The purpose of this study is to establish the limit temperature derived from structural beams made with both a H-section and a H-section filled with concrete at the web and derived the limit temperatures from beams made with H-sections and found out that the limit temperatures from two kinds of specimens depended on the applied loads and the specimens filled with the concrete represented 3 hour fire resistance in the range of 80%, 60%, and 50% of the maximum load.
