Rapid Deformation

For a floor of a building with no less than four stories and no more than twelve stories, the two-hour fire resistance performance should be satisfied. In the case of slabs with steel studs, no two-hour fire resistance performance has been proposed in Korea. In this study, the two-hour fire resistance performance of slabs with steel studs performing as structural elements of modular buildings was evaluated. These specimens were redesigned based on the typical slab used in Europe and North America by modifying the 45 mm fire-resistant board to achieve two-hour fire resistance. The experimental results showed that the FR-001 specimens with 140 mm mineral wool applied to the lower slab and the FR-002 specimens containing 100 mm lower-slab glass wool and 150 mm upper-slab mineral wool did not satisfy the two-hour fire resistance performance, owing to the rapid deformation of the specimens after 75 and 110 min, respectively. However, the FR-003 specimens containing 100 mm glass wool, 150 mm mineral wool in the upper slab, and concrete in the slab satisfied the two-hour fire resistance performance requirement.

Resistance Performance

Structural steel has been used since the early 1970’s in Korea as primary structural members such as columns, beams, and trusses. The materials have much higher strength such as fast construction, high load bearing capacity, high construction quality but those have a fatal weakness as well. Load-bearing capacity is going down when the structural members are contained in fire condition. Therefore, to protect the structural members made of steels from the heat energy the fire resistance performance required. Generally, the fire resistance performance have evaluated from the exact fire tests in fire furnaces. But the evaluation method takes much more time and higher expenses so, the engineering method requires. The engineering method not only adopts a science but also an engineering experience. In this paper, to make various data-bases for evaluation of structural members such as columns(H-section, RHS), beams, loaded fire tests were conducted and derived not only each limiting temperature but also fire resistance respectively.
