Fire Resistance of Structural Steel Framing
About this episode
A comprehensive guide for engineering fire-resistant structural steel framing in accordance with modern building codes. It details the regulatory requirements of the International Building Code and outlines standardized testing procedures, such as ASTM E119, used to establish fire ratings. The text examines various passive protection strategies, including the use of spray-applied materials, gypsum board, masonry enclosures, and concrete infill. Through mathematical formulas and practical examples, the guide explains how to calculate the necessary insulation thickness for beams, columns, and trusses. Additionally, it addresses field inspection standards to ensure that fireproofing is applied with the correct density and thickness for life safety.
