“…For steel structures, more data and better models are needed for time-dependent material response of structural steel, bolts and welds. While considerable work has been done on time-dependent behavior of steel elements at elevated-temperatures, 16,38,39,40,41 understanding of this phenomena is still limited. More research is also needed for improved and simplified modeling of connections in both steel and reinforced concrete structures.…”

Fire safety considerations have an impact on the design of almost all structures, ranging from small residential structures to high-rise buildings. One important aspect of building fire safety is structural-fire safety, with the goal of preventing or delaying collapse of structures during severe fires. Structural-fire safety is of particular importance for steel structures, because of the high thermal conductivity of steel. Structural-fire safety design is most often accomplished using nonengineered prescriptive approaches. However, there is increasing interest in engineered structural-fire safety design for potential advantages in safety, economy and design flexibility. This paper provides an overview of engineered structuralfire safety design for steel buildings, and discusses some of the challenges in this field.
