- Resistance of timber columns under firePublication . Halimi, Aala; Piloto, P.A.G.This research investigated the fire resistance of timber columns through largescale fire tests and advanced numerical simulations. The experiments were conducted according to the ISO 834 standard and measured charring rate, loadbearing capacity, fire resistance and failure mechanisms. The results showed that the timber columns maintained significant structural integrity over a considerable period and that the insulation material effectively improved fire resistance. Finite element models validated with experimental data provide accurate predictions of thermal and structural behaviour. The findings highlight the need for fire safety measures and advanced modelling techniques to ensure the safety of timber structures under fire scenarios. Future research will involve hybrid systems and innovative fire protection technologies.
