Dissemination of structural fire safety engineering knowledge

Objective

The broad technical objective of this proposal is to disseminate effectively Structural Fire Safety Engineering Knowledge gained in numerous ECSC funded projects during the last about 15 years into practical use as widely as possible in various countries in various languages.

The broad technical objective is sub-divided into the following sub-objectives:
- Preparation of common material (written text and Power Point Presentation), practical design examples and collection of free available software for fire design for seminars and workshops as European co-operation. Details, see Work Packages 1-5 later on.
- Translation of the above-mentioned information, which will be made in English, into the following languages: German, French, Dutch, Spanish and Finnish. Details, see Work Package 6 later on.
- Arrangement of numerous public seminars and workshops in participating countries and in some other European countries too and arrangement of special workshops for authorities and architect and engineering offices. The information prepared in this project will be also distributed through the home pages of the partners and through some National Constructional Steelwork Associations. Details, see Work Package 7.

Target key people for dissemination are:
- Designers not qualified in Structural Fire Safety Engineering;
- Authorities responsible for Fire Safety Validation;
- Teachers in the Universities, Technical High-schools and Technical Schools;
- Students

The objective is, that the information produced and distributed in this project could be used in the practical daily design work and for educational purposes. The information produced in this project should also help in making performance based fire design.

The broad commercial objective of this proposal is to increase the market share of steel in the construction industry. It is evident, that by properly made fire design savings may be achieved in many cases and the competitiveness of steel can be increased.
