Abstract

Presents the state-of-the-art methods that can be used to design steel framed structures without the need for passive fire protection materials for up to sixty minutes fire resistance. It covers the design of the following types of beam and column and includes design examples: non-composite downstand beams; composite downstand beams; slim floor beams; shelf angle beams; partially encased beams and unprotected columns; blocked-in columns; partially encased unreinforced and reinforced columns; concrete filled hollow section columns; brick or block encasement. Design data sheets for most of the design options are presented which facilitate design by providing tabulated information.
