When heated, steel structural members tend to: - Answer>>>elongate and push walls outward.
Which factor is likely to affect the speed with which a steel structural member fails
under fire conditions? - Answer>>>Size
How does reinforced concrete react to exposure to fire? - Answer>>>It performs well, but can
lose strength through spalling.
Which type of building material is used to protect other materials because its moisture
content gives it excellent heat resistance? - Answer>>>Gypsum wallboard
What is a concern about lath and plaster during a fire? - Answer>>>Conceals hidden fires and
adds fuel to the fire

zone.
Traditionally, how large is the collapse zone? - Answer>>>1 1/2 times the height of the structure
When should a collapse zone be established at a structure fire? - Answer>>>Once a defensive
strategy is adopted
Once it is determined that collapse is imminent,: - Answer>>>the collapse zone should be
cleared as soon as possible.
What should take place immediately after the collapse zone is cleared? - Answer>>>Personnel
accountability report
Which statement accurately describes how building materials and configuration affect
fire behavior in a structure? - Answer>>>The longer the fire has burned, the more likely it is that
structural integrity has been
compromised.
