It is necessary to obtain a fire resistance certification in order to use SFRM in Korea. The fire resistance tests for certifications are performed separately for beams and columns and the certifications are different. We could assume that the same SFRM has different thicknesses for beams and columns because the conditions of the fire resistance tests for them differ in the section factors etc. But most of the SFRMs in Korea have the same thicknesses for beams and columns. So the question arises as to there were the differences between the fire test results for beams and columns reside. The purpose of this study is to consider the separate evaluation of the fire resistance of members through a comparative analysis of the temperature data obtained from fire certification tests.

In general, fire resistance is determined through the building' uses and stories. But recently a fire engineering design that is done by the calculation of design fires from the fire cell and an evaluation of stabilities for structural behavior at fire condition have applied to almost of countries as a major alternative against a prescriptive fire design. To adopt and utilize the fire engineering design into Korea, at first, we evaluated structural stability of 21st stories steel residential building at fire condition through fire engineering design and secondly the fire protection cost was analyzed with fire engineering design method and the prescriptive one, respectively. No fire protection materials for satisfaction of building law at structural members such as columns and beams were needed and about 90 % of fire protection cost was saved.

The Concrete-Filled Tube (CFT) system was developed for its excellent structural performance, such as its good stiffness, stress and ductility, which is derived from the mechanical advantages of its composite structure. However, it is known that the flat type of reinforcing plates need stiffeners placed at a certain distance from each other to avoid buckling failure, which increases the cost accordingly. This paper investigates the contribution of the rib elements placed inside the steel tube for the purpose of increasing the bond strength between the steel and concrete and fire performance with no additional protection. The test results also demonstrate the effectiveness of the corrugated rib's shape against fire. The results of this study showed that the buckling prevention and fire resistance performance criteria were satisfied by the application of the inner surface attachment rib, due to the resulting increase in the strength of the CFT column. Therefore, it is considered that the CFT method using the corrugated rib structure reinforcement developed through this study satisfies the structural and fire resistance performance criteria without the need for a refractory coating. Future studies will be needed to make the process efficient and economical for factory production.

Fire safety is one of the important factors to be examined when applying ECC to actual concrete structures. The purpose of this study is to confirm whether the fire resistance of ECC satisfies the fire resistant requirements in order to use the fire protection material in concrete structures. Employed temperature curve are HC and RABT criterion, which are severe in various criterion of fire temperature in concrete structures. The test results show that ECC did not undergo any deterioration of fire resistance nor cause explosive spalling, which had been anticipated due to the presence of organic fibers. With comparison of current concrete and fire-resistance materials, the experimental results of ECC shows the better fire resistance performance than the other.

이 연구에서는 내화천장구조 재료의 고온 열특성을 파악하여, 건축물 화재시 천장구조에 대한 보다 정확한 화재성상예측을 위한 실험적 자료로 제시하고자 한다. 건축물의 화재성상 예측은 내화설계 시 반드시 필요하며, 화재성상예측을 위해서는 화재하중, 작용외력, 안전계수 및 설계용 정수의 합리적인 설정이 중요하다. 화재하중 및 작용외력 등은 건축물의 부재가 지니는 하중조건에 대한 화재시의 부재 안정성 예측에 관계되는 부분이며, 설계 시 필요한 데이터 중 내화천장구조 재료의 고온 열특성 값은 화재발생 구획의 화재온도가 주요 구조부재에 전달되는 정도를 예측할 수 있는 인자로 볼 수 있다. 따라서 내화천장구조 재료의 고온 열특성 값 설정은 화재발생 공간의 온도범위($20{\sim}1000^{\circ}C$)에 걸쳐 평가 및 분석되어야만 정확하고 신뢰성 있는 화재발생 예상 공간의 부재 온도 및 안전성 분석이 가능하다. 이에 국내 건축구조물에 사용되고 있는 대표적인 내화피복 재료인 방화석고보드, 텍스, 암면에 대해서 $20^{\circ}C{\sim}900^{\circ}C$까지의 열전도율을 측정하였다. 실험결과 방화석고보드와 텍스의 경우 약 0.15 W/m K까지 일정하게 증가하였다. 암면의 경우 약 $700^{\circ}C$까지는 방화석고보드나 텍스에 비해 열전도율이 낮게 나타났지만, $800^{\circ}C$ 지점부터 용융 및 탄화가 진행되면서 열전도율이 급격히 상승하는 것으로 나타났다.

It is widely known that the level of fire resistance of wooden structure is determined by a charring rate or charring depth, and these are adopted for fire design. In this study, specimens of domestic larch column with a lamination wooden type were prepared and the fire resistance properties such as the charring depth, load ratio and the specific charring rate suggested by EN Code investigated. Test results showed that as expected, the weakest part was the corner of the column, so that the charring depth of the corner was deeper than the other parts of the column. For the load ratio less than 0.9, it had little effect on the charring depth.

Purpose: This study aims to analyze the fire resistance performance applied to plant facilities with high fire risk in Korea, secure suitable fire resistance performance, and ensure the fire safety of plant facilities. Method: Using the finite element analysis program Ansys, thermal transfer analysis and structural analysis were performed with fire load and fireproof coating as variables, and the fire resistance performance of plant facilities was analyzed based on the analysis results. Result: The fireproof coating applied to domestic plant facilities failed to secure fire resistance performance when the fire load of hydrocarbon fire presented in UL 1709 was applied, and it was confirmed that the deformation of steel after the fire was also significant. Conclusion: The current fire resistance performance applied to plant facilities in Korea cannot secure fire resistance performance in sudden fire growth and large fire loads like petrochemical plants, and it is necessary to secure fire safety by evaluating suitable fire resistance performance through performance evaluation of plant facilities.

The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the fire resistant performances of load-bearing wall using both composite and steel stud panel infilled with light-weight formed mortar under axial loading according to KS F 2257(1999). The minimum requirement of 2 hours fire resistant rating is needed for the residential and commercial buildings under the fire regulation of Korea. From test results, it is found that two types of specimen composed of the hybrid stud and steel stud panel filled with light-weight formed mortar fited in with the requirement of 2 hours fire resisting rate for the load-bearing wall. In the conclusions, the specimen with hybrid stud shows predominating fire-resistant performance on the adiabatic effects rather than that of the steel stud specimen.
