2504.01.01 Simplified Method


         a) Uninsulated Column

The column is standing outside the building, but can be exposed to the fire through
window openings. The column is RHS 250 x10 and the required fire resistance is 10
minutes. The span of the column is 8000 mm and it is simply supported in both ends
(see Figure 2504.01.01). It is no welds in the column. The alloy and temper are EN AW
6082 T6 (f0 = 260 MPa).

The column is loaded with the following loads:

       • permanent loads: 150 kN
       • imposed loads:   330 kN

Partiell coefficient for permanent loads is, γG = 1,10 and for variable loads, γQ = 1,50.

The bearing capacity according to ENV 1999-1-1 is calculated to:

              Nb,Rd = 767 kN

The design value of the axial force:

              NEd = 1,10⋅150 kN + 1,50⋅330 kN = 660 kN

F/V calculated according to Figure 2503.03.01:

               F            3 ⋅ 0, 25
                 =                             = 78
               V 0, 25 ⋅ 0, 01⋅ 4 − 0, 012 ⋅ 4

Using Figure 2504.01.02 with the following input

               •         10 mins. fire resistance
               •         resulting emissivity = 0,2
               •         F/V = 78

the metal temperature of the column is 185 °C.

If the window breaks, and the flames engulf the column, the resulting emissivity must
be: εr = 0,7. The metal temperature of the column can be found from Figure 2503.03.04
With the following input:
             • 10 mins. Fire resistance
             • resulting emissivity = 0,7
             • F/V = 78

the metal temperature of the column is 410 °C.

The design value of the axial force in a fire situation (accidental situation):

                        NEd = 1,00⋅150 kN + 1,00⋅330 kN = 480 kN

If the column is not engulfed in flames (εr = 0,2) the column will stand in 10 mins in an
internal fire in the building, if the column may be engulfed in flames (εr = 0,7) it has to
be fire protected.

The temperature of the column may also be calculated on the basis of a simplified
calculation method for thermal actions for external members. This method is described


TALAT 2504                                                                                                                            5
in ENV 1991-2-2 Annex C (Thermal actions for external members - simplified
calculation method) and in ENV 1999-1-2 Annex B (Heat transfer to external
aluminium structures). This method will probably give lower temperature in the
aluminium column.



         b) Uninsulated Floor Beam

The beam is bearing insulated floor elements and will be exposed directly to the fire (see
Figure 2504.01.03). The bottom flange of the beam is 20 mm thick. The required fire
resistance is 15 min. The span of the beam is 5000 mm. The alloy and temper are EN
AW 6082 T6 (f0 = 260 MPa).

         Training in Aluminium Application Technologies




The beam is loaded with the following loads:

       • permanent loads: 3,0 kN/m
       • imposed loads:   12,0 kN/m

Partiell coefficient for permanent loads is, γG = 1,10 and for variable loads, γQ = 1,50.

The bearing capacity according to ENV 1999-1-1 is calculated to:

                    Mc,Rd = 123 kNm

The design value of the bending moment at normal temperature:

                    MEd = 1/8(1,10⋅3,0 kN/m + 1,50⋅12,0 kN/m)(5,0m)2 = 66,6 kNm

The design value of the bending moment in a fire situation:

                                 MEd = 1/8(1,0⋅3,0 kN/m + 1,0⋅12,0 kN/m)(5,0m)2 = 46,9 kNm

F/V calculated according to Figure 2503.03.01

                                  F   1
                                    =     = 50
                                  V 0, 02

Using Figure 2504.01.04 with the following input

                                 •         15 min fire resistance
                                 •         resulting emissivity = 0,7
                                 •         F/V = 50

we find the metal temperature of the beam to be 450 °C.

The beam has to be fire protected. If a computer software is used for the temperature
analysis, the rules for a non-uniform temperature distribution can be used. These rules
will give a higher design moment resistance than the above calculated one, but not so
high as required.


         c) Insulated Column Inside a Wall

The column is standing inside a fire rated wall, and the lining of the wall is passing the
column (see Figure 2504.01.05). The lining consists of 18 mm gypsum boards and the
required fire resistance is 30 min. The column is a channel U 150 x 75 x 6 x 9 and the
alloy EN AW 6063 T6. (f0 = 170 MPa)

The span of the wall is 3300 mm, the column is prevented against buckling about the
weak axis and it is simply supported in both ends. It is no welds in the column.

The column is loaded with the following loads:

       • permanent loads: 15 kN
       • imposed loads:   60 kN

Partiell coefficient for permanent loads is, γG = 1,10 and for variable loads, γQ = 1,50.

The bearing capacity according to ENV 1999-1-1 is calculated to:

         Nb,Rd = 226 kN

The design value of the axial force at normal temperature:

         NEd = 1,10⋅15 kN + 1,50⋅60 kN = 106,5 kN

The design value of the axial force in fire situation:

         NEd = 1,0⋅15 kN + 1,0⋅60 kN = 75 kN

The column is loaded with the following loads:

       • permanent loads: 150 kN
       • imposed loads:   330 kN

Partiell coefficient for permanent loads is, γG = 1,10 and for variable loads, γQ = 1,50.

The bearing capacity according to ENV 1999-1-1 is calculated to:

                    Nb,Rd = 767 kN

The design value of the axial force for normal temperature:

                    NEd = 1,10⋅150 kN + 1,50⋅330 kN = 660 kN

The design value of the axial force in fire situation:

                    NEd = 1,0⋅150 kN + 1,0⋅330 kN = 480 kN

The beam is loaded with the following loads:

       • permanent loads: 4,0 kN/m
       • imposed loads:   16,0 kN/m

Partiell coefficient for permanent loads is, γG = 1,10 and for variable loads, γQ = 1,50.

The bearing capacity according to ENV 1999-1-1 is calculated to:

         Mc,Rd = 617 kNm

The design value of the bending moment at normal temperature:

         MEd = 1/8(1,10⋅4,0 kN/m + 1,50⋅16,0 kN/m)(8,0m)2 = 227 kNm

This over-capacity is caused by the deflection criteria which states that the maximum
allowable deflection is 1/250 of span. This beam has a deflection in the middle of the
span of 1/270 of span.

The design value of the bending moment in a fire situation:

        MEd = 1/8(1,0⋅4,0 kN/m + 1,0⋅16,0 kN/m)(8,0m)2 = 160 kNm


Fi/V is calculated according to Figure 2503.03.06

2504.01.02 Computer Analysis

In this example a computer analysis programme is used to find the metal temperature of
the aluminium structure. The programme used is called TASEF (Temperature Analysis
of Structures Exposed to Fire) and has been developed by Statens Provningsanstalt in
Sweden. The programme is commercialized. [18]

The structure which is analyzed is the same as shown in Figure 2504.01.08. The cross
section of the insulated floor beam is divided into a grid of nodes, for which the
temperature rise is calculated by the computer analysis programme (Figure 2504.01.10).
The nodes No. 31 and 38 get the highest temperatures, they will also be the nodes with
the highest stress. The temperature rise at node 31 and 38 is shown in Figure
2504.01.11. The temperature in nodes no 31 and 38 after 90 min exposure is 207 °C.
Using the simplified method the temperature was calculated to 230 °C.

To analyze the temperature rise in an insulated construction with a computer programme
gives more exact results than the simplified calculation method described in TALAT
Lecture 2503. The simplified method, however, leads to results on the safe side and can
successfully be used.

(The input data and the results of the analysis are appended as copies of the computer
print-out.)

For the free standing column exposed to fire on all sides insulated with 70 mm
vermiculite board the 60 min. fire resistance was calculated earlier. The metal
temperature was found to be 180 °C. Using a computer analysis and a critical metal
temperature of 200 °C the insulation thicknesses for various insulation materials are
given in the table of Figure 2504.01.13.

Equally, for beams under a floor covered with a 100 mm insulation the necessary
insulation thicknesses for a critical metal temperature of 200 °C and fire resistances of
30, 60 and 90 minutes are computer calculated for various insulation materials as given
in the table of Figure 2504.01.14.

For gypsum boards and calcium silicate boards the simplified method gives inaccurate
values. The values in the figured tables are based on computer analysis and are more
correct than values calculated by use of the simplified method.

2504.02.01 Prefabricated Fire Rated Walls

Prefabricated walls are available with fire resistance characteristics from 30 minutes
standard fire to 120 minutes hydrocarbon fire. They are made of aluminium alloy
extrusions and sheets and insulation materials. These walls have also been used on oil
platforms in the North Sea during the last years. The advantages of these walls are their
light weight, the little maintenance needed and the easy erection.

The insulation of these walls is fixed on the unexposed side or in the middle if the wall
is to be exposed to the fire on both sides. The front plates protect the insulation against
the environment and distribute the windload to the side members. During a fire the front
plate will melt and the insulation will be directly exposed to the fire.

In all prefabricated walls for the oil industry (see Figure 2504.02.01) the insulation
material is non-combustible. In some countries combustible insulation is allowed to be
used with special approval from the authorities.

For that reason a sandwich structure with aluminium alloy sheets as skin and
combustible rigid foam as core frequently must be tested by a fire technology laboratory
before the authorities give their approval. Often some specific requirements have to be
met. These conditions can consist of limitations to where the approved structure may be
used, of requirements on specific properties of the material used in the structure and/or
of frequent production controls by an impartial institution.

2504.02.02 Heat Radiation Shield

Due to aluminium alloys' excellent reflection of heat radiation, shields of aluminium are
used as heat radiation shield (Figure 2504.02.02). There are, however, some limitations:
                  •        the shield must not be covered by soot during the heat radiation exposure.
                  •        the heat radiation on the shield must not exceed 15 kW/m² (exact calculation
                           must be performed).

2504.02.03 Fire Rated Doors

Several fire doors in aluminium with a fire rate up to A60 (60 mins. fire resistance) are
available on the market. The doorleaf is fabricated of aluminium alloys and insulation,
while the doorframe is made of steel or stainless steel.

Both, hinged doors and sliding doors are fire classified.

2504.02.04 Fire Rated Penetrations

During the fabrication of a living quarter for an oil platform in the North Sea, entirely
built of aluminium alloys (Snorre), some manufacturers developed fire rated
penetrations with aluminium alloy sleeves and penetration frames.

  • 1. TALAT Lectures 2504 Examples and Applications 20 pages, 16 Figures Basic Level prepared by Steinar Lundberg, Hydro Aluminium Structures, Karmoy Objectives: − to calculate the required fire resistance of uninsulated and insulated load bearing structural members such as columns and beams on the basis of a simple calculation method and according to ENV 1999-1-2 − to point out more refined methods of analysis with the aid of computer programmes − to present some approved and existing fire resistance rated applications, e.g. in the off-shore industry Prerequisites: − background in structural engineering − TALAT lectures no. 2501-2503 REVICED NOVEMBER 1997 in connection with the Leonardo da Vinci project: TAS/WP 1 by Steinar Lundberg.

The column is RHS 250 x10 and the required fire resistance is 10 minutes. The span of the column is 8000 mm and it is simply supported in both ends (see Figure 2504.01.01). It is no welds in the column. The alloy and temper are EN AW 6082 T6 (f0 = 260 MPa). The column is loaded with the following loads: • permanent loads: 150 kN • imposed loads: 330 kN Partiell coefficient for permanent loads is, γG = 1,10 and for variable loads, γQ = 1,50. The bearing capacity according to ENV 1999-1-1 is calculated to: Nb,Rd = 767 kN The design value of the axial force: NEd = 1,10⋅150 kN + 1,50⋅330 kN = 660 kN TALAT 2504 3

If the window breaks, and the flames engulf the column, the resulting emissivity must be: εr = 0,7. The metal temperature of the column can be found from Figure 2503.03.04 With the following input: • 10 mins. Fire resistance • resulting emissivity = 0,7 • F/V = 78 the metal temperature of the column is 410 °C. TALAT 2504 4

The temperature of the column may also be calculated on the basis of a simplified calculation method for thermal actions for external members. This method is described TALAT 2504 5
  • 6. in ENV 1991-2-2 Annex C (Thermal actions for external members - simplified calculation method) and in ENV 1999-1-2 Annex B (Heat transfer to external aluminium structures). This method will probably give lower temperature in the aluminium column. b) Uninsulated Floor Beam The beam is bearing insulated floor elements and will be exposed directly to the fire (see Figure 2504.01.03). The bottom flange of the beam is 20 mm thick. The required fire resistance is 15 min. The span of the beam is 5000 mm. The alloy and temper are EN AW 6082 T6 (f0 = 260 MPa). alu Schema of the uninsulated Floor Beam 2504.01.03 Training in Aluminium Application Technologies The beam is loaded with the following loads: • permanent loads: 3,0 kN/m • imposed loads: 12,0 kN/m Partiell coefficient for permanent loads is, γG = 1,10 and for variable loads, γQ = 1,50. The bearing capacity according to ENV 1999-1-1 is calculated to: Mc,Rd = 123 kNm The design value of the bending moment at normal temperature: MEd = 1/8(1,10⋅3,0 kN/m + 1,50⋅12,0 kN/m)(5,0m)2 = 66,6 kNm TALAT 2504 6

  • 16. For the free standing column exposed to fire on all sides insulated with 70 mm vermiculite board the 60 min. fire resistance was calculated earlier. The metal temperature was found to be 180 °C. Using a computer analysis and a critical metal temperature of 200 °C the insulation thicknesses for various insulation materials are given in the table of Figure 2504.01.13. Equally, for beams under a floor covered with a 100 mm insulation the necessary insulation thicknesses for a critical metal temperature of 200 °C and fire resistances of 30, 60 and 90 minutes are computer calculated for various insulation materials as given in the table of Figure 2504.01.14. For gypsum boards and calcium silicate boards the simplified method gives inaccurate values. The values in the figured tables are based on computer analysis and are more correct than values calculated by use of the simplified method.

They are made of aluminium alloy extrusions and sheets and insulation materials. These walls have also been used on oil platforms in the North Sea during the last years. The advantages of these walls are their light weight, the little maintenance needed and the easy erection. The insulation of these walls is fixed on the unexposed side or in the middle if the wall is to be exposed to the fire on both sides. The front plates protect the insulation against the environment and distribute the windload to the side members. During a fire the front plate will melt and the insulation will be directly exposed to the fire. In all prefabricated walls for the oil industry (see Figure 2504.02.01) the insulation material is non-combustible. In some countries combustible insulation is allowed to be used with special approval from the authorities. alu H 120 Rated Aluminium Prefabricated Wall Installed on Training in Aluminium Application Technologies Hydro´sOil Patform Oseberg A in the North Sea .Autumn 1990. 2504.02.01 For that reason a sandwich structure with aluminium alloy sheets as skin and combustible rigid foam as core frequently must be tested by a fire technology laboratory before the authorities give their approval. Often some specific requirements have to be met. These conditions can consist of limitations to where the approved structure may be used, of requirements on specific properties of the material used in the structure and/or of frequent production controls by an impartial institution.
