This document discusses methods for assessing the residual strength of fire-damaged dimensional lumber through non-destructive in-situ testing. It outlines procedures for containing test fires to achieve varying degrees of degradation, quantifying the change in flexural properties through proof loading and mechanical testing, and developing models to predict elastic modulus and modulus of rupture based on measurements of char rate, cross-sectional area, and proof loading results. Statistically significant models were obtained for predicting elastic modulus and modulus of rupture from non-destructive proof loading tests, allowing direct quantification of changes in flexural properties for members remaining in service after a fire.
