Fire Performance of CFST, SRC and RC Frames

Failure mechanism and fire resistance comparison of concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) frames, reinforced concrete (RC) frames and steel reinforced concrete (SRC) fames are proposed in this paper when their bearing capacity and rigidity at room temperature are similar. The result shows that the failure mode and failure mechanism of the 3 frame structures are much different, and the SRC frames have the maximum fire resistance.
