AD 440: Fire design of external steelwork
SCI publication P375 Fire resistance design
of steel framed buildings gives guidance on
(amongst other things) the design of external
steelwork when heated by a fire in a building
fire compartment. This AD note clarifies which
part of the publication should be used for this
purpose.
It has been brought to SCI’s attention
that some users of P375 are misinterpreting
which section of the document is relevant to
the design of external steelwork. Section 3.4.2
Compartment fires – external members refers
to Annex B of BS EN 1991-1-21 for the model
describing the compartment fire conditions
and the flames emanating from openings.
The expressions in Section 3.4.2 are used in
the calculation of the relevant radiative and
connective heat fluxes. Design of external
steelwork using these heat fluxes should
be based on Annex B of BS EN 1993-1-22 as
described in para. 4.2.5.4. of the same standard.
Section 3.3.2 External fire curve gives the
nominal temperature-time curve intended
for the outside of separating external walls as
defined in para. 1.5.3.5 of BS EN 1991-1-2 and
presented in para. 3.2.2 of the same standard. It
is not intended for use in the design of external
steel members.
