Steel Structures in Fire an introduction

Structural steelwork and its requirement of fire resistance has had a major impact on structural fire engineering development internationally. This video gives an overview of the next chapter to be considered where we will learn to design steel structures at high temperature.

This work forms part of the Stellenbosch University’s Fire Engineering Research Unit (FireSUN) postgraduate program in fire engineering. This work was generously supported by the Lloyd’s Register Foundation (UK) under the “Fire Engineering Education For Africa” grant.
