In case of fire spray protection sheath, fire resisting capacity is assessed for each material and installation method according to fire-resistive construction recognition. This study reviews effects of the percentage of water content that exist in fire spray protection sheath during the assess process of fire resisting capacity on fire resisting capacity, and changes of the percentage of water content according to temperature conditions. As a result of exams, as curing temperature is higher and thickness of specimen is thinner, decrease of the percentage of water content becomes significant.

Sprayed fire resistive materials are mainly used at steel structures to satisfy fireproof construction standard. However, the regulations on bond strength have been not considered with the exception of structures in the nuclear power plants, although it is an important factor showing material properties. Therefore, this paper suggested guidelines for bond strength of sprayed fire resistive materials used in the substation, by measuring bond strength according to aging of structures and impact loading considering environment of substations. It is judged that the bond strength suggested in this paper is the minimum value because it was measured from specimens widely used.

The buildings constructed with steel structure are coated with certified fire resistive material to resist from fire. All the building materials lose their initial performances as time passes by, so they need some maintenance. The Sprayed Fire Resistive Material (SFRM) also loses its performance and this performance loss of the SFRM is very important because fire resistance of buildings depends on SFRM. So this study was aimed to synthesis of alkali-silicates for SFRM and to evaluate the effect of alkali-silicates, K-silicates, Na-silicates and Li-silicates, by exchange of mole ratios as basic factors, tested solubility, intumescence ratios, thermal analysis, powder X-ray diffraction, fire-resistant and heat-resistant.

The fire resistive materials are used to resist from fire accidents in the building. In this study silicone rubber/inorganic flame retardant composites were prepared by mechanical stirring method, using aluminium trihydroxide(ATH, $Al(OH)_3$) and magnesium dihydroxide(MDH, $Mg(OH)_2$) as synergistic fire-resistant additives. The thermal properties of the fire resistant composites were characterized by thermogravimetric analysis(TGA). In addition, rheological properties were observed by rheometer and fire-resistant properties were tested by gas torch. Through this study, we realized that the silicone rubber containing ATH, MDH increased the performance of fire-resistance.

According to increase of the waste concrete occurrence, recycling has being important more and more. This study is to recycle the waste concrete powder, which is occurred in dry-process during recycling of construction waste. We have tried the waste concrete powder to apply as the replacement of the silica powder in cement extruding product. As a result, it is satisfied that the autoclave cured pannel of 50% replacement ratio of waste concrete powder staisty the level of the flexural strength of 14MPa stipulated by "KS F 4735 Extruding concrete panel" was the same thermal properties as base specimen.

Building insulation materials use for the purpose of energy saving. Insulation materials can be classified inorganic and organic insulation materials. Inorganic insulation is used for fire resistive performance parts and organic insulation is used for thermal performance parts. Meanwhile, organic insulation is due to toxic gas emission in fire. Inorganic insulation is too heavy and low thermal performance than organic materials. This study is focused on evaluation of the physical properties of inorganic foam material using industrial by-products such as waste glass powder and fly ash. From the test result, inorganic foam materials for the applicability of fire-resistance and insulation light-weight materials.

This paper has analyzed the structure, applicable regulations and the resistance characteristics of insulation ring type of CSST (Corrugated Stainless Steel Tubing for Gas). With the flammability test conducted in accordance with KS C IEC 60811-1-1, the evaluation of insulation resistance, temperature characteristics, and reliability has been conducted. An insulation ring type CSST consists of protective coating, tube, nut, insulation ring, packing, socket, and ball valve. Connecting an insulation ring type CSST to gas tubings for gas appliance is not permitted, moreover, the product shall be installed inside a sleeve pipe in case of buried installation such as the ceiling. Damages on protective coating and tube were detected when fire was applied to the test sample with a portable torch for 60 seconds. The insulation resistance of a normal product was $49.59M{\Omega}$, while that of the product completed the flammability test reduced to $9.21M{\Omega}$. The mean insulation resistance within the confidence Interval of 95% using the mini tap program 17 was $49.59M{\Omega}$ and the mean insulation resistance within the confidence interval reduced to $9.21M{\Omega}$. In the normal distribution analysis of 95% confidence interval, the value-P of the normal product was stable at 0.075 and AD(Anderson-Darling) statistic value was turned out to be 0.063, which is very normal, and the standard deviation was analyzed as 0.2586. The value P of the product completed the flammability test resulted in 0.005, the AD was 1.355 and the standard deviation reduced to 0.07908.

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.

This paper examined the structure, fire resistance of brass fittings type CSST employed in gas appliances and the reliability verification. Brass fittings of type CSST consisted of cladding, tubing, nut, clamp ring, socket, and ball valve. The applicable JIA standard regulates the maximum working pressure to be 4.2 kPa, which is the highest pressure of the relevant standards and the KS D 3625 stipulates the maximum pressure to be 3.24 kPa. With a normal product, the average resistance within the confidence interval was found to be $7.36m{\Omega}$. The average resistance within the confidence interval was $6.67m{\Omega}$ after the fire resistance tests. The analysis indicated that the AD was 1.584 and the standard deviation was 0.3972 with respect of a normal product. Compared to the normal product, however, the damaged product after the fire resistance test showed better features, such as an AD of 1.145 and a standard deviation of 0.2467. Moreover, the average resistance of the normal product was $7.359m{\Omega}$ and the standard deviation in histogram analysis was 0.3972. The average resistance of the damaged product after the fire resistance test in the histogram was $6.67m{\Omega}$ and the standard deviation was 0.2467.
