Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of construction engineering, in particular to a fireproof steel structure for construction and an installation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] In the field of construction, steel structures are widely used due to their high strength and convenient construction. Traditional steel structure buildings have the defects of low fire resistance and dependence on external fire protection systems. When a fire occurs, the temperature of the steel structure rises rapidly, which will cause a sharp decline in mechanical properties and even deformation and collapse. Existing fireproof steel structures usually adopt the method of external fireproof coating or additional installation of fire sprinkler systems. Publication No. CN110629874B discloses a fireproof steel structure for construction. By providing a fireproof coating, a thermal insulation layer and a cavity pipe, it can effectively prevent fire and resist high temperature, thereby increasing the fire resistance time and providing valuable time for disaster relief and fire fighting. However, relying solely on external water spraying for cooling cannot actively protect the integrity of the structure; after the internal pipe leaks, the entire structure needs to be dismantled for inspection.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0039] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0040] See also Figure 1-8 The present invention provides a technical solution: a fireproof steel structure for construction, comprising a load-bearing column 1, a connecting beam 2 and a connecting node 3. The load-bearing column 1 adopts H-shaped steel. Water tanks 101 are provided on both sides of the load-bearing column 1. The water tanks 101 are formed by welding steel plates to the edges of the load-bearing column 1. The length of the water tank 101 accounts for 80-95% of the overall length of the load-bearing column 1, leaving space for the installation of the connecting node 3.
[0041] The top and bottom of the water tank 101 are both provided with connecting pipes 103, and fire extinguishing pipes 102 are also provided on both sides of the supporting column 1. The fire extinguishing pipes 102 are fixed through the connection with the water tank 101. Both ends of the fire extinguishing pipes 102 extend to the outside of the water tank 101. The length of the fire extinguishing pipes 102 extending from the surface of the water tank 101 is greater than the length of the connecting pipes 103, so as to avoid inconvenience in installing the connecting pipe heads when the lengths are the same.
[0042] A circulation channel 104 is also provided in the water tank 101. The circulation channel 104 runs through the water tank 101 and is isolated from the inside of the water tank 101. That is, a separate steel pipe is provided for the circulation channel 104 to be fixed to the water tank 101, and mounting threads are provided at both ends of the circulation channel 104.
[0043] Mounting holes 105 are provided at both ends of the supporting column 1. The connecting beam 2 is fixed to one side of the supporting column 1 through the connecting node 3. A heat dissipation pipe 203 is provided on the top of the connecting beam 2. The heat dissipation pipe 203 is a metal pipe and is fixed to the top of the connecting beam 2 in an S shape. The circulating water inside the heat dissipation pipe 203 takes away the heat from the surface of the connecting beam 2, thereby achieving heat dissipation of the connecting beam 2 and preventing high temperature from affecting the overall rigidity.
[0044] A fire-fighting pipe 201 and a sprinkler pipe 202 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting beam 2. The surface of the fire-fighting pipe 201 is connected to a fire-fighting nozzle 204, and the surface of the sprinkler pipe 202 is connected to an atomizing nozzle 205. The fire-fighting nozzle 204 adopts an existing commercially available part, which automatically expands and bursts at high temperatures, so as to meet the requirements of automatic opening in a high-temperature environment.
[0045] Adjacent supporting columns 1 in the vertical direction are fixed by connection nodes 3. A three-way pipe head 4 connects two adjacent connecting pipes 103, a four-way pipe head 5 connects two adjacent circulation channels 104, and a three-way pipe head 9 connects two adjacent fire extinguishing pipes 102. One end of the fire fighting pipe 201 is connected to the three-way pipe head 9. A high-pressure tank 11 is also installed on one side of the supporting column 1. One end of the high-pressure tank 11 is connected to one end of the fire extinguishing pipe 102 at the bottom of the supporting column 1 on the ground floor. The high-pressure tank 11 is filled with carbon dioxide gas. The carbon dioxide gas in the high-pressure tank 11 is used to extinguish the fire on site.
[0046] One end of the four-way pipe head 5 is connected to the first valve 6, and the other end of the four-way pipe head 5 is connected to the second valve 7. The outlet end of the first valve 6 is connected to one end of the heat dissipation pipe 203, and the other end of the heat dissipation pipe 203 is connected to one end of the three-way pipe head 4, and the outlet end of the second valve 7 is connected to one end of the spray pipe 202; the three-way pipe head 29 located at the top of the top-level supporting column 1 is changed to a two-way pipe head, and the four-way pipe head 5 is changed to a three-way pipe head.
[0047] A circulation pump 8 is installed at the bottom end of the bottom support column 1. The water inlet of the circulation pump 8 is connected to the connecting pipe 103, and the water outlet of the circulation pump 8 is connected to the circulation channel 104. The first valve 6 is a normally open solenoid valve, and the second valve 7 is a normally closed solenoid valve. When the circulation pump 8 is activated, heat is dissipated through the heat dissipation pipe 203. When the fire is large, the second valve 7 can be opened to spray the fire with the atomizing nozzle 205 for firefighting.
[0048] It also includes a rain collecting trough 10, the bottom of which is connected to a three-way pipe head 4 provided on the top of the supporting column 1. A protective net is provided at the bottom of the rain collecting trough 10 to prevent impurities from entering. The water tank 101 can also be connected to a fire-fighting pipe to achieve continuous water supply.
[0049] It also includes a controller 12 and a smoke sensor 13. The smoke sensor 13 is communicatively connected to the controller 12. The first valve 6, the second valve 7 and the circulation pump 8 are electrically connected to the controller 12. The controller 12 is used to control the working status of the first valve 6, the second valve 7 and the circulation pump 8.

Change the three-way pipe joint 2 9 to a two-way pipe joint, and change the four-way pipe joint 5 to a three-way pipe joint;
