Application of Importance Factor for Classification of Bridges for Mitigating Fire Hazard
This paper presents the application of a simplified approach for classification of bridges based on fire risk. An importance factor was developed for identifying the vulnerability of bridges to fire hazard. This importance factor, developed using weighted factor approach, takes into account the degree of vulnerability of different bridge components, critical nature of a bridge from traffic functionality point and fire mitigation strategies present in a specific bridge. This importance factor is applied for evaluating vulnerability of a typical bridge to fire hazard. It is shown through two case studies that the proposed importance factor can be used as a practical tool for identifying critical bridges from the point of fire hazard.
