Structural Fire Engineering is an active field that explores the analysis and design of building structures that withstand fire, enhancing safety and minimizing damage. It incorporates advanced fire modelling techniques and performance-based designs to create fire-resistant structures using novel materials and technologies. The field actively addresses the behaviour of structural components under fire conditions, with the aim of improving the resilience and sustainability of buildings, especially in complex and high-rise structures.
This research topic aims to significantly advance the understanding and implementation of fire-resistant designs in structural engineering. By exploring innovative fire modelling techniques and novel materials, the research has the potential to revolutionize the field. It seeks to develop more effective performance-based design approaches that enhance the fire resistance of structures, reduce fire-induced damages, and facilitate efficient rehabilitation strategies. By improving the predictive accuracy of fire dynamics simulations and refining design methodologies, the research topic aims to contribute to safer, more sustainable, and economically viable architectural solutions that are resilient to fire impacts.
The research topic will cover multiple aspects of Structural Fire Engineering, including developing sophisticated fire modelling techniques for more accurate structural analysis and exploring novel materials and technologies for fire protection. The papers will assess the performance of building components and assemblies under various fire scenarios to establish robust fire safety measures, particularly in high-rise and complex structures. Importantly, it will also explore sustainable design practices and innovative construction methods, providing practical solutions to enhance the fire resistance of new and existing buildings.
