Combustibility of lightweight foam concrete based on natural protein foaming agent

There is an experimental study of samples of monolithic foam concrete “SOVBI” with a density of 205 kg /m 3 (grade D200) for combustibility. The evaluation criteria are the following values of combustion characteristics: temperature increment in the furnace, duration of the stable flame burning, sample mass loss. The experimental results show the following values for foam concrete: temperature increment in the furnace of 2 °C, duration of the stable flame burning of 0 s, and sample mass of 24.4%. Thus, monolithic foam concrete with a density of 205 kg/m 3 is noncombustible material. It is proposed to use monolithic foam concrete and other lightweight monolithic cellular foam concrete, as a structural fire protection for lightweight steel concrete structures. It, in turn, can increase the fire resistance of external walls and floor structure with the steel frame of cold-formed zinc-coated profiles.
