Tabular Method

Based on analysis of appropriate literary sources we established that estimation of fire separation distances was based of two criteria: heat flux and temperature. We proposed to use “ignition temperature of materials” as principal criterion when determining fire separation distances between adjacent construction facilities. Based on the results derived while performing complete factorial we created mathematical model to describe trend of changing fire separation distances depending on caloric power of fire load (Q), openings factor of the external enclosing structures (k) and duration of irradiation (t); moreover, its adequacy was confirmed. Based on linear regression equations we substantiated calculation and tabular method for the determination of fire separation distances for a facility being irradiated which contains combustible or otherwise non-combustible façade and a facility where liquid oil products turn. We developed and proposed general methodology for estimation of fire separation distances between construction facilities by calculation.

Being aimed to deformation problem of pre-stressed concrete thin-walled multi-room box girders exposed to co-action of fire and load, on the basis of enthalpy conduction model and thermo-mechanics parameters, the finite element procedure was applied to analyze the deformation of three spans pre-stressed concrete thin-walled multi-room box girders exposed to co-action of fire and load. In conclusion, the deflection is obvious under action of the variation width and fire load model.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the load characteristics of steel and concrete tubular members under jet fire, with the motivation to investigate the jet fire load characteristics in FPSO topsides. This paper is part of Phase II of the joint industry project on explosion and fire engineering of FPSOs (EFEF JIP) [1]. To obtain reliable load values, jet fire tests were carried out in parallel with a numerical study. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation was used to set up an adiabatic wall boundary condition for the jet fire to model the heat transfer mechanism. A concrete tubular member was tested under the assumption that there is no conduction effect from jet fire. A steel tubular member was tested and considered to transfer heat through conduction, convection, and radiation. The temperature distribution, or heat load, was analyzed at specific locations on each type of member. ANSYS CFX [2] and Kameleon FireEx [3] codes were used to obtain similar fire action in the numerical and experimental methods. The results of this study will provide a useful database to determine design values related to jet fire.

Concrete Filled Steel Tubes

The post-fire axial compressive behavior of a set of steel fiber reinforced ceramsite concrete filled steel tubular short columns (noted as SFCC-SSC) was experimentally studied. Effect of the maximum value of fire response temperatures of the specimens and some parameters on the axial compression performance of the specimens was especially discussed. The results show that the surface of the steel tubes after fire presented dark red for 700°Cof furnace temperature and orange red for 900°C, and there was no obvious descending segment in post-fire load-displacement curves of the most specimens subjected to fire load. It was concluded that the axial bearing capacity of the specimens aftersuffering the furnace temperature of 900°C is much less than that of the specimens not subjected to fire load, and the volume of steel fiber of 0.5% of has the greatest effect on post-fire bearing capacity of specimens of SFCC-SSC.
