Análise das propriedades da madeira de estrutura de telhado após a ocorrência de um incêndio

The present study evaluated the mechanical properties of pieces of wood coming from the roof structure of a residence subject fire in the rural area of Itapeva/SP. The structure was built 25 years ago using wooden beams of the species Guarucaia (Peltophorum vogelianum), where the specimens were removed. The research methodology included qualitative evaluation of the samples, estimating the layer pyrolysis and carbonization of the wood, measuring of density and mechanical tests of compression parallel to grain, tension parallel to grain and shear. The mechanical properties of wood were analytically correlated with the layers carbonization and pyrolysis that are influenced by the temperature and time of fire; these values were estimated at 1000 °C and two hours for the case in question. The results indicate that the strength properties of degraded wood are different from a healthy wood. The level of thermodegradation, in general, can be measured by density, result in weight loss due to decomposition of the wooden components.

Durabilidade da argamassa mista de revestimento interno contendo dregs-grits em substituição à areia

This paper concerns about the durability of new material in construction. It is noteworthy the fact that increases increasingly searching for alternative materials that do not depend only of natural resources and at the same time be an alternative for reuse of industrial waste. Since the construction materials have a long life and a high cost of civil works and maintenance, it is crucial to estimate the behavior of a new product. Thus , this work discuss the durability of mixed mortar lining , made with waste from the process Kraft pulp production , known as dregs and grits , in partial replacement of sand. Tests were conducted to simulate conditions as adverse environments of constant heat and fire, with the aim of analyzing the behavior of mortar mixed matched the behavior of standard mortar

Processo de renovação do auto de vistoria do corpo de bombeiros

This work deals with the stages of the process of renewal of a Notice of Inspection of Fire Department (AVCB) set of structural measures, technical and organizational integrated to ensure the building an optimum level of protection in the security segment fire and panic according to the laws of fire safety standards. The work presented all the literature about the process, their justifications to force deploy in a company to fire safety, the benefits that this standard offers, the facilities in a company that has a AVCB and the great importance in society, presents some examples where there contained the fire safety regulations and their unhappy outcomes, difficulties encountered, examples of how to proceed, step by step and the lesson that this process requires great care, dedication, professionals with the required knowledge and severity to completion

Do nobre ao patético: o herói de Victor Hugo e o anti-herói de Machado de Assis

This article analyses how Victor Hugo embodied his heroes and Machado de Assis his anti-heroes. Three Assis´s short stories and three Hugo´s novels are compared: “O caso da Vara” and the chapter “L‟affaire Champmathieu” from the book Les Misérables; “Noite de Almirante” and Les Travailleurs de la Mer; “Um incêndio” and Quatre-Vingt-Treize. These texts present similar situations, but each author shows an outcome that reveals their literary proposal. For this reason, Comparative Literature and Intertext had been used as base of reflection for this article.

Distribuição espacial dos incêndios em vegetação registrados pelo 2º Sub-Grupamento do Corpo de Bombeiros de Rio Claro/SP e o tempo atmosférico entre 2009 e 2013

Many fire occurrences in vegetation happen annually in the city of Rio Claro, causing material losses, environmental damage and discomfort to population. When identified the source, notes that the higher index is intentional, however, climatic factors such as wind speed, temperature, relative air humidity, rainfall, or even the local relief also affects in the spread and its devastating effects. Scientific studies that would assist the local community in the prevention and repression of them still are scarce. This way, the work has as objective contributes in the understanding of the relationship among the fire occurrences in vegetation registered (recorded) by Fire Department of Rio Claro/SP, and their relationships with the atmospheric time. To achieve this goal was made to build a database related to fires in vegetation during the years 2009-2013, and subsequently correlated with data of precipitation and relative humidity the air, provided by Center for Analysis and Planning Environmental (CEAPLA). The result identified the profile of the fires, the seasons of higher frequency, neighborhoods and districts with the highest number of records and correlate events with climatic factors that act in the ignition, propagation and control of fires in the Municipal district of Rio Claro/SP
