Objetivo
Experience in real fires shows that the present assessment methods for the fire behaviour of supporting steelworks in modern steel framed structures is too conservative. This is confirmed by recent large scale fire tests, carried out in the scope of the Cardington LBTF Demonstration Project. Aim of the proposed research is to develop operational design rules and calculation models, which allow an easy and realistic assessment of the fire behaviour modern steel framed structures, taking full account of the beneficial effect of the inherent fire resistance of the complete load bearing structure.
