Slimflor Compendium
by the Steel Construction Institute, 2008

This Slimflor compendium reviews a substantial amount of data from standard fire resistance tests on Fabricated Slim Floor beams, Asymmetric Slim Floor beams and RHS edge beams. A total of 21 fire tests have been reported. Seven tests were carried out on fabricated Slimflor beams with pre-cast concrete units, three on fabricated Slimflor beams with deep decking, five on asymmetric beams with deep decking and three on RHS edge beams.

For each test, a summary description is provided covering the construction of the fire test specimen, the instrumentation fitted to the specimen and the results of the fire test in terms of the speciments' performance as assessed against the load bearing failure criteria. Data recorded during the fire test is also provided on a CD that accompanies this report. Data has been provided in Excel format for all of the tests included in this report. However, in some cases only summary data was available.
