Requirements of Fire Resistance Based on Actual Fires (Swedish Approach)
(1984) In LUTVDG/TVBB--3024--SE- Abstract
- A rational, analytical approach to a fire engineering design of load bearing steel structures is described. The method of design is directly based on the natural compartment fire concept and on strictly defined functional requirements and performance criteria. The method is permitted to be

The design basis is presented in a manual which has been given type approval for practical use by the National Swedish Board of Physical Planning and Building. The design procedure has recently been further developed in order to arrive at a design method in regard to fire exposure which is in principal agreement with modern loading and safety philosophy for the non-fire state.
