Moving Away from the Standard Fire Resistance Test
This paper summarizes the current movement towards a more logical, considered approach to designing structures for fire conditions. The increasing reliability and understanding of fire engineering analysis, coupled with recent large scale fire tests is encouraging the greater use of performance based standards both nationally and internationally. The available techniques for a performance-based design are described in this paper along with some ArupFire projects, where these design techniques have been applied.
