Fire Resistance of In-Plane Compressed Log-House Timber Walls with Partial Thermal Insulation

Fire Resistance of In-Plane Compressed Log-House Timber Walls with Partial Thermal Insulation

This paper presents the full-scale experimental assessment of a log-house timber wall with partial thermal insulation under in-plane compression and exposed to fire on one side. A key aspect of the current design application for log-house systems is represented by geometrical details, like cross-sec...
