Engineering Variables to Replace the Concept of ‘Noncombustibility’
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - - 2016
The concept of noncombustibility evolved in the early days of building codes, before quantitative methods of measuring and assessing components of fire hazard were available. ‘Noncombustible’ lacks a technical definition of general scope, but in the US codes, which are the primary focus of this study, it is defined as a material which meets the criteria of the ASTM E136 test. The hazard variables ......
Ignition and Charring of PVC-Based Electric Cables
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 58 - Trang 689-707 - 2021
The ignition of four different PVC-based electric cables was studied using cone calorimeter and the influence of the charring phenomenon on ignition was investigated. The thermophysical and optical properties of the sheaths before decomposition were measured. The kinetics of charring was studied by photogrammetry. It was shown that charring occurs for three cables before ignition at heat flux lowe......
Post-Fire Evaluation of the New Zealand International Convention Centre
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - - Trang 1-44 - 2023
In October 2019, the largest fire in a commercial building in New Zealand since 1947 burned for over ten days through the roof and upper floor of the 120 m wide × 100 m long New Zealand International Convention Centre, which was under construction and nearing completion at the time. The steel composite and reinforced concrete framed building features five storeys above grade of structural steel fr......

Fire Resistance of Lightweight Timber Framed Walls
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 38 - Trang 125-145 - 2002
Limiting the fire spread through lightweight framed construction is a well-established method of providing fire safety in building design. The design objective is for walls to provide fire resistance for a certain period to satisfy fire safety requirements. This paper describes a model for predicting the fire resistance of a non-loadbearing or loadbearing timber framed wall subjected to either a s......
A design method for flaming fire detection
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 20 Số 4 - Trang 5-16 - 1984
The scientific basis of a design method for the detection of flaming fires is reviewed. The equations required to calculate detector spacings are included and the selection of appropriate design input parameters is discussed. Limitations of the method and areas for further research are identified. The design method has been implemented and proposed for inclusion in NFPA Standard 72E-1984 as Append......
The Collapse of World Trade Center 7: Revisited
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - - Trang 1-28 - 2022
The catastrophic events of September 11, 2001, stand out as a major motivation for research on improving the understanding of structural behaviour in fire. These events included the first complete collapse of a tall steel framed structure solely due to fire. World Trade Center 7 (WTC7) was a 47-storey office building within the WTC complex that collapsed due to a fire initiated by debris from the ......
