As a part of the evaluation of housing systems for Operation Breakthrough a standard fire endurance test was performed at the National Bureau of Standards on a load-bearing steel column construction for use in single-family attached and multifamily low-rise housing. The test method was generally in accord with the requirements of ASTM E 119 for a loaded column. The applied load was 7110 pounds per column and the test results are valid only for columns of such construction loaded at or below the stress level developed by this loading. The 3 in. x 2 in. x 3/16 in. rectangular hollow tubular steel column was protected with two layers of gypsum board. The fire endurance time of the column assembly was established.
