Slender Mixed Concrete Filled Steel Columns, in Fire Condition

Article Preview

Abstract:

This research is part of an extensive developing line at the Laboratory of Structures at Faculty of Civil Engineering in State University of Campinas, UNICAMP, about the behavior of columns in fire situation. In this paper, experimental results on the behavior of steel columns, slender, unfilled or filled with usual strength concrete in fire situation, are presented and compared with standard codes. It was observed that concrete filling of columns made of tubular steel profiles may provide significant improvement in structures fire safety.
