This paper, as an attempt to meet the practical needs in the fire protection field of Korea, has dealt with establishing the identification criteria and prevention theory of electrical fire. The causes analysis of electrical fire was already conducted and then reported by the authors in the Journal of the Korean Institute of Electrical Enginers, October, 1966. This paper is, therefore, the next results of a series of studies on the causes and identification of electrical fire.

본 논문은 단독형 화재감지기에 무선통신기능을 융합한 화재감지장치를 개발하고자 ZigBee 통신기술을 단독형화재감지기의 신호처리방식으로 채택하여 무선 네트워크와 결합이 가능하도록 설계하였다. 화재감지시 출력전압은 0.4V, 동작 펄스폭은 $600{\mu}s$로 실험하였다. LED감시등은 30초 주기로 동작하고 0.12mA, 동작시에는 0.5초 주기로 하며 사용전류가 7mA가 흐르도록 하여 전원회로, Chamber테스트, 연기테스트, IRED, LED 점등등 각 부분이 일정 시간 내에 정상적으로 동작되어 그 적정성을 확인하였다.

This paper addresses the efficiency of thermal insulation layers applied to protect structural elements strengthened by fiber-reinforced polymers (FRP) in the case of fire event. The paper presents numerical modeling and nonlinear analysis of reinforced concrete (RC) columns externally strengthened by FRP and protected by thermal insulation layers when subjected to elevated temperature specified by standard fire tests, in order to predict their residual capacity and fire endurance. The adopted numerical approach uses commercial software includes heat transfer, variation of thermal and mechanical properties of concrete, steel reinforcement, FRP and insulation material with elevated temperature. The numerical results show good agreement with published results of full-scale fire tests. A parametric study was conducted to investigate the influence of several variables on the structural response and residual capacity of insulated FRP-confined columns loaded by service loads when exposed to fire. The residual capacity of FRP-confined RC column was affected by concrete grade and insulation material and was shown to improve substantially by increasing the concrete cover and insulation layer thickness. By increasing the VG insulation layer thickness 15, 32, 44, 57 mm, the loss in column capacity after 5 hours of fire was 30%, 13%, 7% and 5%, respectively. The obtained results demonstrate the validity of the presented approach for estimation of fire endurance and residual strength, as an alternative for fire testing, and for design of fire protection layers for FRP-confined RC columns.

This paper is about an recent overview of the fire regulations of several countries as for the use of XPS related insulation in building application. The data compiled in this paper is based both on in-house expertise at SP Fire Technology, in particular in relation to European Building legislation, and on replies to a questionnaire distributed to a selected group of colleagues internationally, and subsequent discussions with these colleagues.

This research carried out to investigate the effects of inorganic materials in paper sludge on the thermal degradation and of paper sludge addition on physical and mechanical properties of paper sludge-wood particle mixed boards in comparison with unmodified particleboards. Also these unmodified particleboards and paper sludge-wood particle mixed boards were soaked in aqueous solutions of fire-retardant chemicals(diammonium phosphate and zinc chloride), and their fire retardancy were tested by oxygen index method and ISO ignition test to determine the feasibility of paper sludge, industrial waste, as a recyclable resource in fabrication of fire-resisting panels for building material. Since the redrying of fire-retardant treated particleboards and paper sludge-wood particle mixed boards were made by press drying method, this process was a simple and effective method. On the other hand, flexural bending strength and internal bonding strength were also analysed to evaluate mechanical properties through standard method.

화재는 건축구조물을 손상시키고, 궁극에는 붕괴될 수 있어 재실자 및 소방관의 생명을 위협한다. 따라서 화재 시에 구조물 내부의 재실자 및 소방관의 안전을 확보하기 위하여 구조물 안전성에 대한 과학적이고 공학적인 분석이 요구된다. 그러나 현실적으로 화재현장에서 화재손상 건축구조물에 대한 실시간 구조물 안전성 평가, 소방활동 안전구역 설정, 붕괴 우려시 소방관 철수 결정 등에 관한 과학적이고 공학적인 평가 절차 및 방법은 전무한 실정이다. 이에 내화설계 및 화재저항성평가 이론 등을 활용하여 화재손상 건축구조물에 대한 실시간 안전성평가에 관한 절차 및 방법을 제안하였다. 물론 이러한 안전성평가 절차 및 방법은 화재초기부터 실시간 화재건물 내부 상황을 가장 잘 파악 가능한 소방관에 의하여 이루어져야 한다고 판단되어 소방관이 활용가능한 안전성평가 절차 및 방법을 제안하였다.

The field of structural fire engineering has evolved within the construction industry, driven largely by the acceptance of performance-based or goal-based design. This evolution has brought two disciplines very close together - that of structural engineering and fire engineering. This paper presents an overview of structural systems that are frequently adopted in tall building design; typical beams and columns, concrete filled steel tube columns and long span beams with web openings. It is shown that these structural members require a structural analysis in relation to their temperature evolution and failure modes to determine adequate thermal protection for a given fire resistance period. When this is accounted for, a more explicit understanding of the behaviour of the structure and significant cost savings can be achieved. This paper demonstrates the importance of structural fire assessments in the context of tall building design. It is shown that structural engineers are more than capable of assessing structural capacity in the event of fire using published methodologies. Rather than assumed performance, this approach can result in a safe and quantified design in the event of a fire.

This paper describes the results of a numerical investigation of the large deflection behaviour of steel beams under fire conditions, taking into consideration the effect of catenary action provided by the surrounding structures. The main focus is on the development, validation and application of a simplified calculation method that may be adopted in design calculations. Because no experimental result is available for validation of the simplified calculation method, the finite element program ABAQUS has been used to simulate the large deflection behaviour of a number of steel beams so as to provide alternative results for validation of the proposed method. Utilising catenary action has the potential of eliminating fire protection to all steel beams without causing structural failure in fire. However, practical application of catenary action will be restricted by concerns over large beam deflection causing integrity failure of the fire resistant compartment and additional cost of strengthening the connections and the surrounding structures to resist the catenary forces in the steel beams. This paper will provide a discussion on practical implications of utilising catenary action in steel beams as a means of eliminating fire protection. A number of examples will then be provided to illustrate the type of steel framed structure that could benefit the most from exploiting catenary action in fire resistant design.
