The materials that have been used to make a fire door are gypsum and glass fiber wool where it acts as a protective coating. Normally, this fire door must be compact and able to close on its own. A composite mixture of gypsum and natural fibers have been considered in this study to enhance the fire resistance rating of a fire door. Natural fibers have the ability to replace glass fiber cotton because of its features that are available in fiber glass wool. When using fiberglass, it can cause health problem once it is swallowed and inhaled, and may remain in the lungs indefinitely. It also can contribute to lungs cancer. Kapok, sugarcane and wood fiber have been used in this experiment. The objective of the experiment are to analyze the fire resistant rating of the composite mixture of gypsum with kapok fiber, sugarcane fiber and wood fiber, The scopes of the experiment consist a preparation of composite mixture samples of gypsum with wood and sugarcane fiber with one thickness and single composition. Fabrication of a fire resistant testing furnace. A testing of samples which were conducted in accordance with the standard MS 1073: PART 2:1996. Besides that, the determination of the fire resistance rating for each of those samples, followed by comparison on the cost with the fire resistance of traditional timber fire door and the gypsum composite mixture with natural fibers. Last but not list is to evaluate and discuss results obtained from experiment. The fire resistance rating for each sample will be determining in this experiment. 2024-08-26T04:45:36Z 2024-08-26T04:45:36Z 2016 Resource Types::text::Final Year Project https://irepository.uniten.edu.my/handle/123456789/33334 en application/pdf |
