| Abstract: | ▪ European countries are now starting to apply the EN standards for buildings. ▪ The EN standards include principal and application rules for fire resistance design of buildings allowing also performance based fire design. ▪ What is the state of art for applying the EN standards for fire resistance design and especially performance based design? ▪ For which kind of applications there exist experiences to use the performance based design in fire? ▪ These were the main questions to which were looked for answers by questions sent to the members of the COST C26. |
