Fire Safety Design

Purpose This paper deals with the fire resistance of primary and secondary beam connections in timber structures. Design/methodology/approach This paper describes a series of unloaded and loaded furnace fire tests in different configurations of these types of connectors. Findings The main objective is the fire safety design of joist hangers and full thread screws. Originality/value Design recommendations are given.

The University

The University of Nottingham's wooden framed laboratory, designed to be carbon neutral, was wrecked by the blaze on 12 September. The fire resistance of timber structure is concerned by all the researchers again. Firstly, this paper summarizes characters of timber structures; Secondly, the ordinances of different countries are compared; lastly, the fire resistance of timber material is proposed.
