Objective

A complete new Fire Safe Concept has been developed in the ECSC project 7210- SA/522. The aim of this project completed in June 1998, was to achieve a breakthrough in the natural fire safety concept thus leading to safer and more economical steel buildings. This concept based on Natural Fire instead of the ISO-Curve is a new global approach designed to strongly increase the competitivity of steel buildings as it reduces or avoids the costs of the insulating materials. This valorisation project intends to translate the key conclusions of the "Natural Fire Safety Concept" into 5 European languages and to diffuse this report to experts in the field.
