Analysis of the Effect of Gypsum-Based Fire Protection Cover on Charring of Wooden Bearing Elements
Fire resistance of load-bearing wooden structures is evaluated by the charring of surface layers of wooden bearing elements. The degree of resistance is determined by the onset and course of charring; these basic parameters are affected by the cover ...

Experimental Study of the Concrete Cracking Behavior of an Immersed Tunnel under Fire
This study investigates the impact of fire on the cracking behavior of immersed tunnels. A reduced-scale (1:5) model of an immersed tunnel was constructed to conduct fire tests in both traffic tubes using the HCinc curve as the applied fire.
