Connections of steel and composite structures under natural fire conditions (COSSFIRE) : final report
During the last decade, the fire performance of the joints of steel structures has become a concern with the application of global structural analysis in fire safety engineering. In consequence, the present project is aimed to get firstly, through detailed experimental and numerical investigations, deep knowledge about the fire behaviour of both steel and composite steel and concrete joints under natural fire and structural conditions and to provide then practical design rules as well as simple construction details for joints of steel and composite structures. In order to achieve the above objectives, various fire tests have been carried out within the scope of this project, during which the following features were investigated in detail: • fire performance of key joint components, such as bolt and weld under natural fire conditions, that is both heating and cooling phases; • fire behaviour of the most three common types of joints under natural fire conditions as well as restrained effect; • sfire resistance of connection between edge steel members and composite slab in case of global steel and concrete composite floor systems. In addition, various analytical analysis and numerical studies were conducted on the basis of the above experimental investigation, which have led to the following outstanding results: • stength reduction factors and detailed material models for both bolt and weld under natural fire conditions; • simple design rules for steel and composite joints for fire situation; • economic and efficient construction details for connection between edge steel members and composite slab in case of global steel and concrete composite floor systems; • spractical design guidance for steel and composite joints and connections under fire situation.
