Development of a general-purpose component-based connection element for structural fire analysis
In fire, elevated temperatures undermine the resistance of structural materials, which leads to steel-framed buildings being subject to very large deformations. Elevated temperatures also cause the affected members to expand, and subsequent cooling induces contraction and recovery of strength. Becau...
