Abstract
Owing to infrastructure obsolescence, petrochemical plants possess a high risk of accidents. Various restrictions and regulations exist on the structural arrangement and separation distance to reduce the risk of damage from such accidents and to encourage the use of fire walls in building structures. Currently, steel fire walls require revision because their material properties induce the production of radiant heat during a large fire, which can cause casualties. In this study, steel fire walls from an actual petrochemical plant were heated to follow a “KS F 2257-1” standard fire curve. Consequently, the possibility of fire and human damage due to heat flux and temperature changes were evaluated.
