Fireproof structures using concrete, built-up panels and dry walls are usually used in walls inside fire compartments. However, demand for glass walls is emerging due to increase in interest in visibility and external appearance. In this study on steel fire resistance walls using insulation glass, fire resistance tests and performance evaluations were conducted on 60 minute fire resistance walls and exterior walls which could be applied to interior fire compartments and 90 minute fire resistance walls which could be applied to curtain walls. According to the tests, the specimens satisfied the required fire resistance performance. The finite element analysis was conducted after the tests to evaluate the fire resistance performance of the glass walls. The analysis results showed that the preliminary evaluation of fire resistance performance would be feasible.

As interest in health has recently increased, many researchers have investigated the utilization of functional foods by confectioneries and bakeries. However, research on loaf bread containing beets has not been conducted. To investigate the optimal ratio of beet in loaf bread containing beet powder, characteristics of loaf bread according to 2%(B2), 4%(B4), and 6%(B6) beet powder per wheat flour were examined. The experimental results were as follows. Fermentation rate was reduced as content of beet powder increased compared with the control, whereas pH levels of dough and loaf bread significantly increased as content of beet powder increased. As content of beet powder increased, volume of loaf bread decreased, whereas specific volume increased. There was no significant difference in volume of loaf bread between the samples. As far as color changes are concerned, as content of beet powder increased, L value decreased, whereas a and b values increased with significant differences between the samples. Characteristics were examined by sensory evaluation of loaf bread containing beet powder. Color of inner texture and peel color of loaf bread significantly increased as content of beet powder increased. Size of air pores was largest in B4, and there was no significant difference in the uniformity of loaf bread between the control and experiment groups. As content of beet powder increased, rigidity of bread was reduced. Control showed the highest elasticity, whereas moisture level was highest in B2 with no significant differences between the samples. The flavor of beet was stronger as content of beet powder increased. In the preference test, B4 showed the highest preference scores for texture, flavor, taste, and overall likeness but not appearance. The experimental results showed that B4 among all control and experimental groups had the most suitable baking characteristics and an optimum content of beet powder. Therefore, B4 can be considered as the most appropriate for making loaf bread containing 4% beet powder in terms of physical and sensory characteristics. This is a new product that satisfies overall sensory preferences and has improved functionality.
