Thermal calibration of strain gauges is essential for accurately determining strut loads in braced excavations. The procedure involves thermally calibrating each strain gauge prior to installation on a strut by monitoring the microstrain response over several days as the strut expands and contracts undisturbed. This establishes the thermal response coefficient for each gauge. During loading, the measured microstrain can then be corrected for the gauge's thermal response to determine the actual earth and thermal loads on the strut. Examples from a project in Perth, Australia show that neglecting thermal calibration can lead to inaccurate load determinations, especially with large temperature variations.
Example of fire design of the industrial building. This is a fully documented calculation example with direct reference to the actual code provisions. It is based on European Standard ENV 1999-2 (Eurocode 9)

This document examines the effect of carbon content on grain refinement in C-Mn and interstitial-free (IF) steels deformed via warm working. Four steels with varying carbon contents were strained at 700ยฐC to 2.3. Dynamic recrystallization resulted in a 2 ฮผm ferrite grain size at the surface for all steels.

Increasing carbon decreased ferrite grain size after deformation but also increased strength, while alloying elements aided additional refinement.

2704.01 Description of the Problem
In this example the method described in TALAT Lecture 2503 ("Design of Aluminium
Alloy Structures Exposed to Fire") shall be used together with a more exact computer
analysis for comparing the results of the problem: will the beam shown in Figure
2704.01.01 have a fire resistance of 60 minutes?
The floor beam has a span of 8000 mm and a load of 20 kN/m. The floor itself is
insulated with 100 mm Rockwool 110. The beam is insulated with 30 mm Rockwool
with density 300 kg/mยณ (Conlit 300). The beam is an I 450 x 200 x 10 x 25, the alloy is
6082-T6.
the moment of inertia I = 515,8 x 106 mm4
the elastic section modulus W = 2,29 x 106 mm4
the yield strength ฯ0,2 = 250 Mpa

Finding the metal temperature of the beam:
Insulation: 30 mm Rockwool 300 kg/mยณ
Insulation correction factor: C = 1,5
Equivalent insulation thickness: tequ = 1,5 โข 30 mm = 45 mm
Section factor Fi/V:
0,35 x 2 + 0,2 x 2 - 0,01
Fi/V = โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ = 78
0,2 x 0,025 x 2 + 0,4 x 0,01
With this Fi/V value the metal temperature is found from Figure 2704.02.01.

The relative strength is obtained from Figure 2704.02.02.
The strength after 60 minutes of exposure to a standard fire is
ฯ f = 0,59 x ฯ 0,2 = 0,59 x 250 MPa = 148 MPa
Fire is an accidental loadcase. In most design codes both the material factors and the
load factors are equal to 1,0 for this loadcase.

The bending stress in the beam is

ฯ b = โโ = โโโโโโโโโโโโโ = 70 Mpa
W 2,29 x 106 mmยณ
Conclusion: The beam has a fire resistance of at least 60 minutes which was required.
(ฯ f = 148 Mpa > ฯ b = 70 Mpa).
2704.03 Computer Analysis
To determine the metal temperature of the beam with the aid of a computer programme
called TASEF v.3.0 PC, the following procedure was followed:
The cross section of the beam has to be modelled for the analysis (see Figure
2704.03.01):
After one hour of exposure the obtained temperature distribution over the cross-section
is shown in Figure 2704.03.02. The average temperature of the lower flange is 240 ยฐC
which will be the critical part of the member (maximum bending stress).
TALAT 2704 5
6. The average temperature rise in the lower flange during the one hour fire exposure is
shown in Figure 2704.03.03.

8. Conclusion:
Compared to the simplified method, the computer analysis gave exactly the same
average temperature in the lower flange of the beam. The rest of this calculation will be
the same as for the simplified method.
The output file of this computer run is called TASEF U02. The computer listing is
available on request.
