Experiments were performed on steel reinforced concrete (SRC) column to SRC beam joints subjected to fire scenarios including heating and cooling phases, and temperatures in the junction and areas certain distance away from the junction were measured during both the heating and cooling phases. The experiments tested the influence of heating time on the temperature distributions at various sections of the specimens. A three-dimensional finite element analysis (FEA) model was developed to calculate the temperature field of the SRC column to SRC beam joints. The predicted temperatures show good comparison with the test results. Based on the finite element analysis, the differences of the temperature distributions in the joint zone and the non-joint zone are analyzed and its influence to the structural fire safety design is illustrated. One important conclusion from this study is the necessity to include cooling phase in structural safety design because it is in the cooling phase of fire that the majority of joint materials reached their peak temperature.
