INELASTIC BEHAVIOR OF PROTECTED STEEL BEAMS AND FRAMES IN FIRE

Abstract
In the past, the authors studied the fire resistance of protected steel columns in fire. In this study, the inelastic behaviors of protected steel beams and frames that are exposed to a thermal history similar to that obtained in a standard furnace fire test are investigated numerically by the method of finite element elasto-plastic-creep analysis, including thermal and mechanical properties of steel under high temperatures and geometrical nonlinearities of steel members.
