Abstract: |
This paper studies the fire performance of steel warehouse with their main elements insulated with fire protection boards composed of gypsum‐based mortars with perlite using the heat transfer and thermomechanical analysis in finite element (FE) software. The primary aim is to identify the optimal thickness of the fire protections boards based on the assigned fire model in thermal analysis. Besides that, a parametric study is also conducted by considering various factors that are often overlooked or not explicitly mentioned in fire design guidelines, such as EN 1991‐1‐2. The findings facilitate the development of optimized fire design approaches, ensuring the structural integrity and safety of steel warehouses under fire conditions. |
