Abstract
In July 2006 a full-scale compartment fire was set in an existing block of flats in Dalmarnock Glasgow. Prior to ignition the structure surrounding the compartment was heavily instrumented and with deflection gauges, thermocouple and strain gauges. The fire itself was also carefully monitored. The resulting data set is the first to describe the behaviour of a concrete structure in fire through a complete heating-cooling cycle. This paper presents the data captured by the instrumentation associated with the structural aspects of the test.
