Applications of Fire Engineering: Proceedings of the International Conference of Applications of Structural Fire Engineering (ASFE 2017), September 7-8, 2017, Manchester, United Kingdom PDF

Applications of Structural Fire Engineering contains the papers presented at ASFE 2017 (Manchester, UK, 7-8 September 2017. The ASFE’17 conference is the next in a series (2009, 2011, 2013, 2015) of successful conferences that aim to bring together experts and specialists in design against fire from all over the world to share ideas and to acquire knowledge in the field of structural fire engineering.

Practice in structural engineering increasingly accepts the benefits of performancebased approaches to the design of structures for fire resistance. Applications of Structural Fire Engineering focusses on the application of design methods, both manual and computational, for structures to resist fire. Particularly relevant themes are fire modelling, simulation of the heat transfer between fire and structures, and modelling of structural behaviour at elevated temperatures using numerical methods or software implementations of design codes.
