3D printing technology of construction field can be divided into structural materials, interior and exterior finishing materials, and is mainly done by extruding and adapting. Particularly when it is applied as an exterior materials, it is mainly applied to an unstructured exterior materials and high accuracy is required. The exterior materials can be used as a cement composite materials, it is suitable also for a additive type manufacturing, and the role of a redispersible polymer powder is important. But, high temperatures, redispersible polymer cement base material beget dehydration and micro crack of cement matrix. In this research, we developed a EVA, EVCL redispersible polymer cement base material applicable as a 3D printing exterior materials, confirmed density and strength characteristics for application as an exterior materials, a flame retardancy test for improving the fire resistance of buildings and confirmed its possibility. From the test result, developed EVCL redispersible polymer cement mortar showed good stability in high temperatures. These high temperature stability is caused by the ethylene-vinyl chloride binding. Thus, this result indicates that it is possible to fire resistant 3D printing interior and exterior finishing materials.

This study is part of the research on fire-resistant materials to prepare for changing fire behavior, oyster shell and egg shell, which are natural calcium carbonate materials, were substituted as fine aggregates. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the strength and fire resistance performance according to the substitution rate, and to provide data for use as fire resistance material. Oyster shells and egg shells were substituted with 10~50 % of the fine aggregate, respectively, and tested for strength and Simplified heating according to the KS test method. Although the strength of OS was measured to be higher than that of ES, the backside temperature was also measured to be higher. As a result, it is recommended to use fireproof boards with OS where strength performance is required, such as explosive fires, Where high fire resistance performance is required, such as high-temperature fires over 1000 ℃, fireproof boards with ES can be selected according to the application.

In this study, a series of fire experiments under $HC_{inc}$ and ISO834 (duration of 4 hour) fire scenarios were carried out for three different types of fire protection measures for the segment joint to evaluate their applicabilities to an immersed tunnel. The experimental results revealed that an expansion joint installed to allow relative movements between concrete element ends in an segment joint is the most vulnerable to a severe fire. For the fire protection measure where the originally designed steel plates at an expansion joint arc replaced by fire-resistant boards, the experiments showed that they cannot achieve good fireproofing performance under both $HC_{inc}$ fire scenario and ISO834 (4 hour) fire scenarios since the installation of fire-resistant boards results in the reduction of the sprayed fire insulation thickness. On the other hand, the application of modified bent steel plates replacing the original steel plates was proved to be very successful in fireproofing of the expansion joint due to more sprayed materials filled in bent steel plate than in the original design concept as well as higher adhesion between the steel plate and the sprayed fire insulation layer.

For the preparation of hardened films which can be applied as a binder for flame-resistant materials such as silica, linseed oil was subjected to a low temperature plasma treatment with argon, or oxygen gas. The film was produced much faster than so-called drying of oil in air. The SEM analysis for silica particles embedded in the hardened film after plasma treatment showed that the silica particles were immobilized on substrate and were evenly dispersed. The FT-IR spectral analysis for the plasma-treated linseed oil films demonstrated that the radicals which were formed during the plasma treatments caused the linseed oil to be cross-linked, and the plasmas attacked carbon chains of the oil randomly without focusing on specific vulnerable bonds such carbon double and carbonyl bonds intensively unless exposure times of the plasmas were prolonged too much, while the cross-linking of the air-dried film was considered to occur at the well-known typical sites, i.e., carbon-carbon double bond and ${\alpha}$-methylene carbon. Burning times, as a measure of flame/fire resistance, of silica-filled cellulose substrates, increased with increasing contents of silica.

Intumescent inorganic and organic coatings which dintr one from the other by the type of gas formers and the mechanisms of foam formation have been obtained and investigated. Inorganic intumescent coatings are the compositions based on water glass and mineral additives with different dispersity. Mineral additives contain adsorbed and absorbed water and carbonates which are destructed with the carbon dioxide and water evolution during the flame action on coating. The decreasing of mineral additives particle sizes under the mechanical milling with the fraction precipitation promotes the foam coke formation with less defects. Here the main structure of comparing compositions does not change. In organic coatings based on epoxy-polymers the polyammonium phosphate additive is used. It is the cabonization catalyst and the foam agent. The polyammonium phosphate of various dispersity employed is uniformly distributed on the polymeric matrix. The decreasing of the particle sizes leads to the increasing of the fire resistant properties of the intumescent coa-ting. The fire resistant analysis of the coating during more than an hour: the coating back side the temperature on plastic or wooden materials does not exceed 423K, and on metal-573K.

In this study, a column member of an existing architecture finished with gypsum board was assumed to examine fire resistance characteristics according to the type and thickness of finishing material. All specimens showed spalling to the reinforcing part after fire resistance test. For temperature characteristics, rapid temperature increase of 100${\sim}$200 $^{\circ}C$ was shown between 35 ${\sim}$ 60 minutes in the sequence of 9.5 T, 9.5 T (2 pieces), 12.5 T, 15 T and fire resistant 12.5 T. The analysis suggested that finishing materials with better fire resistance are necessary.

When structural elements of steel framed structures are exposed to fire situations, the structural stability begins to decrease due to dislocation of substantial. The increase of the beam length causes an additional stress and deflection. These can be serious factors to cause a severe failure of structures. To improve the fire resistance of beams, prevention of the heat from a fire by coating with fire protection material is essential for beams. The FR 490 was developed to enhance fire resistance compared with SM 490 steel. However, the fire resistance of FR 490 H-beams has not been evaluated by analysis method since it was developed. In this paper, materials properties in high temperature and a heat transfer and thermal stress theory were used in the evaluation of the fire resistance of FR490 H-beams. The fire resistance of FR490 steel beams was compared with that of SM490 beams. The comparison verified that the structural stability of FR490 beams at high temperature was superior to that of SM490 beams.

This paper presents a method using artificial neural networks (ANNs) to predict the residual moment capacity of thermally insulated reinforced concrete (RC) beams exposed to fire. The use of heat resistant insulation material protects concrete beams against the harmful effects of fire. If it is desired to calculate the residual moment capacity of the beams in this state, the determination of the moment capacity of thermally insulated beams exposed to fire involves several consecutive calculations, which is significantly easier when ANNs are used. Beam width, beam effective depth, fire duration, concrete compressive and steel tensile strength, steel area, thermal conductivity of insulation material can influence behavior of RC beams exposed to high temperatures. In this study, a finite difference method was used to calculate the temperature distribution in a cross section of the beam, and temperature distribution, reduction mechanical properties of concrete and reinforcing steel and moment capacity were calculated using existing relations in literature. Data was generated for 336 beams with different beam width ($b_w$), beam account height (h), fire duration (t), mechanical properties of concrete ($f_{cd}$) and reinforcing steel ($f_{yd}$), steel area ($A_s$), insulation material thermal conductivity (kinsulation). Five input parameters ($b_w$, h, $f_{cd}$, $f_{yd}$, $A_s$ and $k_{insulation}$) were used in the ANN to estimate the moment capacity ($M_r$). The trained model allowed the investigation of the effects on the moment capacity of the insulation material and the results indicated that the use of insulation materials with the smallest value of the thermal conductivities used in calculations is effective in protecting the RC beam against fire.

This paper describes a part of the results obtained in the process of the development of thin sound isolation sheets filled mineral compound powder with PVC. The raw materials used are pyrophillite, pottery stone and graphite. The physical properties such as the crystal structures, compositions, and specific gravities, etc. of raw materials are analyzed and discussed from a point of view of sound isolation material. From the analysis of experimental results, the particle size and the additive amount of mineral compound powder for manufacturing sample isolation sheets are decided. The resistant capability against fire of sound isolation sheets including mechanical, thermal and physical properties is tested. The transmission loss measuremenst of sound isolation sheets are performed using two-microphone method in an impedance tube. It is shown that the sound isolation capability of thin sheets has an excellent performance in excess of the object of development.
