Structural fire safety is one of the key considerations in the design and maintenance of the
built infrastructure, yet there are serious limitations in the current approaches to structural fire …

This study documents important aspects of bolt assembly performance in structural steel
connections at elevated temperatures that have not been the subject of detailed …

In this paper, experimental results of the structural fire behaviour of four large-scale steel
frame test assemblies are presented. Test assemblies were made of HSS beams and …

Major events—notably the Broadgate fire in London, New York's World Trade Center
collapse, and the Windsor Tower fire in Madrid—as well as the enlightening studies at the …

Steel bolted connections are used in many engineering, mechanical and building structures
that can be subjected to a wide variety of thermal loads [11, 28]. As a result of these loads …

Recent structural collapses caused by fire have focused attention on research concerning
fire safety in building design. Steel connections are an important component of any structural …

In this study, we carried out nonlinear finite element simulations to predict the performance
of a column-tree moment connection (CTMC) under fire and static loads. We also conducted …

This paper presents a state-of-the-art review on the behaviour of beam-to-column joints in
fire and considers experimental and analytical research work on isolated joint configurations …

This study investigates the fire response of steel semi-rigid beam–column moment
connections made with H-shape beam and H-shape column. The general purpose finite …

The companion paper has reported the results from a test programme in which web cleat
connections were subjected to various combinations of shear, tying and moment actions at …
