Assessment of fire reaction and fire resistance of Guadua angustifolia kunth bamboo
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2012)
The main challenge for construction industry today is sustainability. Bamboo has properties that make it sustainable, but its fire behavior remains unknown. This paper presents an exploratory research on fire behavior of ...
EVALUATION OF THE INFLUENCE OF THE STANDARD FIRE RESISTANCE CALCULATION METHODS IN THE VERIFICATION OF CONCRETE WALL BUILDINGS
(Centro Federal Educacao Tecnologica Rio Grande Norte, 2021-01-01)
It is necessary, in order to carry out the assessment of concrete structures in a fire situation, to know the Standard Fire Resistance of the structural elements. Both the ABNT NBR 14432 (2001) and the ABNT NBR 15200 (2012) ...
Performance of ZnO nanoparticles for fire retardant and UV protection of pine wood
(2019-01-01)
The aim of this paper was to investigate the influence of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles on the resistance of pine wood to fire and ultraviolet (UV) radiation. The ZnO nanoparticles were prepared from aqueous zinc nitrate ...
Performance of ZnO Nanoparticles for Fire Retardant and UV Protection of Pine Wood
(North Carolina State Univ Dept Wood & Paper Sci, 2018-01-01)
The aim of this paper was to investigate the influence of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles on the resistance of pine wood to fire and ultraviolet (UV) radiation. The ZnO nanoparticles were prepared from aqueous zinc nitrate ...
Response of ferrite, bainite, martensite, and retained austenite to a fire cycle in a fire-resistant steel
(2021-12-01)
Understanding the kinetics of microstructural degradation during the event of a fire is of major relevance to future optimization of fire-resistant steels (FRS). In this work, we use in situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction ...
A field perspective on effects of fire and temperature fluctuation on Cerrado legume seeds
(2017-06-01)
Information from a field perspective on temperature thresholds related to physical dormancy (PY) alleviation and seed resistance to high temperatures of fire is crucial to disentangle fire- and non-fire-related germination ...
FIRE RESISTANCE OF TWO PANEL PRODUCTS MADE FROM CHEMICALLY MODIFIED RAW MATERIAL
(Universidad del Bío-Bío, 2010)
To resist or to germinate? The effect of fire on legume seeds in Brazilian subtropical grasslands
(Soc Botanica Brasil, 2016-01-01)
Fire plays an important role in several grassland ecosystems in the world. Fire can trigger germination in several species, by breaking the physical dormancy of their seeds. Thus, we hypothesized that exposure to high ...
Thermal properties and fire resistance of jute-reinforced composites
(Taylor & Francis, 2010-02)
The thermal behaviour, fire resistance and mechanical properties of jute-reinforced composites with vinylester and resol matrix were studied. Organically modified clay was added to the polymeric matrix in order to enhance ...
Dimensionamento em situação de Incêndio de perfis em aço estruturais convencionais e aços resistentes a fogo
(Universidade Federal de Minas GeraisUFMG, 2002-04-29)
Steel elements used in construction lose much of their strength and stiffiness with the rise of the temperature. Therefore, in fire situations, in order to the structural elements of a steel building resist to a loading, ...
