A Review of Precast Concrete Beam‐to‐Column Connections Subjected to Severe Fire Conditions

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Fire exposure can have a significant impact on the structural integrity and robustness of precast concrete beam‐to‐column connections. Given the importance of fire safety in the design of a structure, it is critical to understand the damage that may occur in the event of a fire to be able to prevent the building from collapsing.
