Fire Modelling of Intumescent Steel Coatings by matheus civeira is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The paper evaluates the performance of intumescent painted steel structures in fire scenarios, highlighting the inadequacy of current methods, particularly the method of critical temperature (MCT), in predicting the fire response of these structures. It presents experimental data from fire tests on various steel members and develops a numerical model to assess the time-dependent thermal response of intumescent coatings. The findings indicate that the MCT method may lead to unsafe design assumptions, necessi
