The Fire Performance of Exposed Timber Panels
Cross-laminated timber is increasingly being used in the construction of high-rise buildings due to its simple manufacturing system. In term of fire resistance, cross-laminated timber panels are promoted as having excellent fire resistance, comparable to that of non-combustible materials and to heavy timber construction, due to the ability of thick wood assemblies to char slowly at a predictabl...
متن کاملNear and far field contamination modeling in a large scale enclosure: Fire Dynamics Simulator comparisons with measured observations.
The occurrence of a fire, no matter how small, often exposes objects to significant levels of contamination from the products of combustion. The production and dispersal of these contaminants has been an issue of relevance in the field of fire science for many years, though little work has been done to examine the contamination levels accumulated within an enclosure some time after an incident....
متن کاملTimber Price Dynamics following a Natural Catastrophe
Catastrophic shocks to existing stocks of a renewable resource can cause long-run price shifts. With timber, these long-run price shifts may be accompanied by a short-run price drop due to salvage. Hurricane Hugo damaged 20% of southern pine timber in the South Carolina Coastal Plain in 1989. To estimate the shortand long-run effects of the hurricane on the prices of timber stocks, we estimated...
متن کاملFire Safety Engineering – Opportunities and Challenges for Timber Buildings
The combustibility of timber is one of the main reasons that many building regulations strictly limit the use of timber as a building material. Fire safety is an important contribution to feeling safe, and an important criterion for the choice of building materials. The main precondition for an increased use of timber in buildings is adequate fire safety. This paper reviews the opportunities an...
متن کاملIsoperimetric Triangular Enclosure with a Fixed Angle
Given a set S of n > 2 points in the plane (in general position), we show how to compute in O(n) time, a triangle T with maximum (or minimum) area enclosing S among all enclosing triangles with fixed perimeter P and one fixed angle ω. We show that a similar approach can be used to compute a triangle T with maximum (or minimum) perimeter enclosing S among all enclosing triangles with fixed area ...
