| Abstract | |
This research presents a study, within the context of numerical analysis with ANSYS v9.0, in which the main goal has been driven to obtain the rise of temperature in steel and composite steel-concrete structural elements cross sections with the purpose of evaluating the temperature determination by normative equations proposed in brazilian standard NBR 14323:1999, considering the simple calculation model, specially in situations with not uniform exposition of the elements cross sections to the fire. Numerical models of steel, composite steel-concrete and wooden structural elements cross sections in fire situation are presented to evaluate the levels of temperature throughout the time. Numerical models to analyze the effect of the rise of temperature in the mechanical behavior of steel beams of a building of interest are also presented. The temperature levels obtained for structural elements by prescriptions of NBR 14323:1999 lead to satisfactory results but with temperatures near to the maximum temperatures obtained numerically. For the usual cases not contemplated by the NBR 14323:1999, is evident the necessity of employing advanced calculation models or studies for the development of analytical methods for such situations. With respect to the analysis of temperature rising effects in the mechanical behavior, the reduction factors for the resistance in fire situation, obtained by ANSYS, resulted smaller than those ones obtained by TCD v5.0, with base on the analysis of elements cross sections and normative procedures.
