CESEARCH Professional Backgrounds Bryan Nicholson, Ph.D. Graduated from Clemson University Doctoral research in fire resistant materials Began Cesearch with Kevin Anderson in 1985 Kevin Anderson, PhD. Graduated from Clemson University Doctoral research in skyscraper structural analysis

CESEARCH Company History Consulting services Pay based on billable hours Typically hired by companies and government agencies to analyze building failures and provide recommendations

CESEARCH A Secure Skyline Twin Towers Importance of Research Direction of Research

CESEARCH Twin Towers On September 11th, two of the world’s most well-known structures collapsed.

CESEARCH The World Trade Center towers were built in the 1960’s, boasting their titles as the world’s tallest buildings. The collapse opened our eyes to re- examine out-dated building codes in fire resistance. Twin Towers

CESEARCH Pictures of the Collapse TIME Magazine - “Shattered” TIME Magazine - “It Didn’t Seem Real”

CESEARCH The World Trade Center’s design actually saved thousands of lives by standing for well over an hour. Its design also withstood the bomb attack of 1993 and the strong distributed wind loads acting on a high-rise building Why did it fail? Thought to be Unbreakable...

CESEARCH “It was the fire that killed the buildings -- nothing on earth could survive those temperatures with that amount of fuel burning.” -Chris Wise Structural Engineer Why Did it Fail?

CESEARCH A better design, however, could possibly allow for more time before collapse or prevent the collapse.

CESEARCH Need for Research “According to some experts, US engineers have never really taken seriously the idea that buildings can collapse in this way.” - Dr. David Whitehouse, BBC News

CESEARCH Importance of Research To assess the need for new fire resistance modifications to building codes Give the public a better feeling of security Prevent future steel failures

CESEARCH Direction of Research Interview professionals in the civil engineering field for viewpoints and ideas Assess current building codes Search for similar fire-related failures Provide NIST with a set of recommendations to improve fire resistance in sky scrapers

CESEARCH Focal Points of Research Properties of steel Failure modes of steel relating to temperature Specifics of steel used in the WTC Properties of current aviation fuels Fire resistant coatings Current building codes Relationship between our research and the structural layout

CESEARCH Our research will provide society with enhanced and up-to-date building codes. This research will be an invaluable benefit to society. Benefits to Society
