Fire Resistance of Walls of Gravel-Aggregate Concrete Masonry Units
Fire endurance test results for 12 walls of gravel-aggregate concrete masonry units are given and hose-stream test results for three of the walls. The concrete units used in five of the walls were made with calcareous aggregates representing the group of natural aggregates less susceptible to damage by fire. The units used in the other seven walls were made with siliceous aggregates representing the group more susceptible to fire damage. The constructions included 4-in. nonload-bearing partitions and 8- to 12-in. load-bearing walls.
