Material Properties of Steel in Fire Conditions
About this book
Material Properties of Steel Fire Conditions is a major new contribution on how to understand the material properties of steel in fires. The application of new types of steel and development of sophisticated codes of practice has grown dramatically in recent years, making this a timely resource on the topic. Under fire conditions, knowing the material properties of steel is essential in the fire resistance design of steel structures, such as in Eurocode3. This book shows that the reduction factors of mechanical properties of different steels are quite different. In recent years, the authors of this book have carried out significant testing on the material properties of several types of steels, such as Q460 steel, Q690 steel and A992 steel, etc.
Users will find this new test data on the material properties of steel with temperature useful in evaluating the fire resistance of steel structures in their own projects.
- Deals with the material properties of steels in fire conditions, including thermal properties and mechanical properties, such as thermal conductivity, strength, elastic modulus and creep behavior
- Provides basic knowledge to perform fire resistance design of steel structures
- Presents information useful to designers, researches and students who must conduct fire resistance design or perform structural analyses on high strength steel structures
