Abstract
A continuous-resistance, continuous-capacitance analog model has been constructed and used to simulate a fire-exposed T-beam structure. The model was arranged to permit study of both one and two-dimensional transient heat flow and to allow for Newtonian heat losses to the cool surroundings.
