【 摘 要 】

Immediately after an earthquake, fire is the most probable accidental action on buildings. Beam-to-column steel connections are parts of the structure that need to have sufficient fire resistance in order for occupants to exit the building and firemen to intervene. Fire and post-earthquake fire tests on steel connections were made at the Technical University of Cluj-Napoca, Romania. Real scale specimens were created and some of them were subjected to cyclic action following a special procedure. After the cyclic action, the deteriorated specimens were immediately subjected to fire. New connections were also tested for fire action in order to find differences to the deteriorated case. In this paper, a short description of the specimen, test stand and equipment, the reports of all tests and immediate conclusions of each test are presented.
