Experimental Study on Fire Resistance Performance of Glulam Beams

Article Preview

Abstract:

Abstract : A series of standard fire-resistance tests were carried out to study the fire performance, failure modes and fire-resistance ratings of glulam beams. The test results showed that these glulam beams performed well during the tests, and the fire-resistance rating requirements can be achieved as expected. The study has provided necessary knowledge and experimental data for the determination of fire-resistance performance of glulam beams in the fire code of China.
