10.01: Analytical methods for the prediction of fire resistance of “reinforced” slim floor beams
The present paper describes a new analytical method for the prediction of temperature in longitudinal reinforcement bars of slim floor beams subjected to fire. This method is based on the isotherms of EN 1992‐1‐2 Annex A developed for concrete beams and slabs and is consequently applicable only to slim floor beams subjected to standard ISO fire curve. In addition to vertical heat fluxes, this method also considers 2D temperature field induced by the hot part of the beam web and by the lateral heating in case of long span composite flooring systems. An adaptation is proposed for reinforcement bars when situated close to the beam web.
This new method leads to very good temperature predictions for R60, R90 and R120 fire resistance requirements. For less severe requirements, the reinforcement usually remains below 400°C and the resistance of hot‐rolled reinforcement bars is not reduced for this range of temperatures. The better predictions of the sagging bending moment of the section under ISO fire by use of this new method have also been demonstrated within the present paper.
