Performance-based structural fire design of steel frames can eliminate fire protection on up to half of a building’s floor beams, according to a two-year study of PBSFD. Still, structural engineers ...
Using PBSFD, engineers can predict the behavior of a frame in fire, such as vertical displacement of floor beams over time. Graphic courtesy of SEI/ASCE, Simpson Gumpertz & Heger (2019) and SAFIR ...
In a world aiming toward sustainability and risk mitigation, the traditional prescriptive method to structural fire safety is becoming less and less viable. Fortunately, new industry resources can ...
