A series of fire resistance tests of aluminum alloy members was conducted. This study characterize temperature rise and collapse mechanism of the aluminum alloy members. Analytical expressions, based on lumped mass heat balance equation, have been developed to estimate the temperature rise of unprotected, protected aluminum members during fire. An evaluation method of critical temperature of aluminum alloy members was also proposed and compared to experimental data. The results of the calculations by these methods were found to be in a good agreement with the experimental results.
