[QUOTE="Lurker66, post: 1806040, member: 24459"] The following passage is from Appendix A of FEMA's World Trade Center Building Performance Study. In the mid-1990s British Steel and the Building Research Establishment performed a series of six experiments at Cardington to investigate the behavior of steel frame buildings. These experiments were conducted in a simulated, eight-story building. Secondary steel beams were not protected. Despite the temperature of the steel beams reaching 800-900° C (1,500-1,700° F) in three of the tests (well above the traditionally assumed critical temperature of 600° C (1,100° F), no collapse was observed in any of the six experiments). I copied this from your link. I read appendix A of FEMAs WTC building performance study also from your link. This passage is not in the study or at least its not in appendix A. I dont know where its from. I dunno why but stuff like this bothers me, it sounds good, it looks good but its not correct. I geuss theres a market for it tho. Have a good day. [/QUOTE]
