Reliability of steel structures in case of fire
Abstract
A new method for analyzing fire resistance of load bearing structures in big indoor spaces, based on Eurocode, is presented through case study of the steel roof structure of the Spaladium Sports Hall. The temperature-time relationships for indoor space are obtained by the zone model, and this for two fire situations: fire in the arena, and fire on the grandstand. The reliability of the roof structure is analyzed based on temperature-time curves in load-bearing elements of the steel structure.
