- Abstract
- This report describes a series of three fire tests on wide-flange steel beams protected with gypsum-sanded plaster. The tests were carried out in accordance with the provisions of ASTM Standard E119, Alternate Test of Protection for Solid Structural Steel Beams and Girders, which does not require a load to be applied during the fire test. One of the beams was loaded for information purposes.
