Summary of Best Practice Guidelines for Structural Fire Resistance Design of Concrete and Steel Buildings
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has published a comprehensive set of best practice guidelines for structural fire resistance design of buildings as part of its World Trade Center (WTC) Response Plan. The Best Practice Guidelines is a result of a collaborative effort initiated by NIST that involved experts in the design and construction industry and academia. It features information on current best practices in fire resistance engineering in the United States and overseas, and current best knowledge in fire risk assessment and characterization, material properties at high temperatures, and thermal and structural response calculation methods. The document integrates state-of-the-art information into a single source document to enable the use of the performance-based approach for fire resistance design, and to provide engineers and code enforcement officials with a technical resource for use in their approach to fire resistance design and evaluation of concrete and steel structures.
