Fire Design for Multi-Story Timber Structures
Climate change impact seen in every continent.It is affecting every nation´s economies and human health.Climate getting warm (Warming of 1.5°over past century), so that ice is melting to rise sea levels. (united nation, n.d.). So to tackle and combat climate change involves the use of renewable materials such as wood, many researching has been conducted to get way to replace convention building materials (steel and concrete), that are the main the factor that contribute to acceleration of climate changing. Wood which is a carbon-sink, renewable, eco-friendly, and sustainable non-conventional construction material is solution to this problem. Now timber multi-story buildings are becoming common in Finland every year as national building code of Finland is modified to permit the construction of multi-story timber building when knowledge of timber design and progressive technology of timber allowed mass timber product to be used safely against fire.Using wood as a construction material found to have positive effects on well-being.The researchers aim to show that using wood for interior design, for example, increases well-being, creativity, and efficiency, which then produces measurable economic value. (Puutinfo, 21.9.2018.) The aim of thesis is to discuss different codes and standards of different country that compares prescriptive and performance-based fire design of residential multi-story timber structures. As the result it will be clear why we need to design multi-story timber building mixing perspective design approach and performance as both guarantee fire safety of tall timber building
