Fire Performance of Timber Connections, Part 1: Fire Resistance Tests on Bolted Wood-Steel-Wood and Steel-Wood-Steel Connections
Lei Peng, George Hadjisophocleous, Jim Mehaffey, Mohammad MohammadThis paper presents the results of a series of fire-resistance tests on bolted wood-steel-wood (WSW) connections and bolted steel-wood-steel (SWS) connections. In total, 16 WSW…
Fire Performance of Timber Connections, Part 2: Thermal and Structural Modelling
Lei Peng, George Hadjisophocleous, Jim Mehaffey, Mohammad MohammadThis paper presents models for calculating the fire resistance ratings of bolted timber connections based on fire-resistance test results carried out recently. In the first phase…
The Behaviour of Cast Rope Sockets at Elevated Temperatures
Isabel Ridge, Roger HobbsModern building structures are making increasing use of high performance tension members in steel spiral strand. The terminations to the strand typically employ a steel fitting, a…
Optimization of Post-Fire Residual Compressive Strenghth of Concrete by Taguchi Method
A. Rahim, U. Sharma, K. Murugesan, A. Sharma, P. AroraThis paper presents results of an experimental study undertaken to optimize the residual compressive strength of heated concrete with respect to various mix design parameters…
