Concrete structural masonry is widely used on high-rise buildings in Brazil. Through the past decades some effort on research in the topic have been made but there is still a need for research on masonry fire safety. This is reflected in the lack of a Brazilian National Standard regarding masonry under fire conditions. In this context, it is of interest to assess the influence of the cavities present in concrete masonry units (CMU) on thermal behavior. This paper uses ABAQUS software to perform numerical simulations and assess the relative importance of radiation and convection inside cavities in concrete masonry units under standard ISO 834-1:1999 fire condition. Radiation between cavity surfaces and fluid convection are considered using c...
