- Abstract
- The effectiveness of fire-protective materials which can be applied directly to structural steel members by spray techniques was investigated. Test specimens were prepared with protective coatings applied in 1/2-inch, 1-inch, and 2-inch thicknesses by a number of manufacturers, using normal field methods of application.
