Safety Concept and Design for Fire Resistance of Steel Structures
- 1983
-
Reports (other academic/artistic)abstract
- This paper is aimed at describing the principles on which are based the current concepts of fire engineering design of steel structures. The first part deals with the design methods for fire safety through the definition of heat exposure and structural models. The second part reviews the state of art in structural fire calculation methods, according to different levelsof assumption.

University training of senior fire brigade officers. The new approach in Sweden
- 1989
-
In: Fire Safety Journal. - : Elsevier BV. - 0379-7112. ; 15:1, s. 95-101
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In Sweden a fundamental development has recently taken place in the training of future senior fire brigade officers. There are two main changes: the training period has been substantially increased and the theoretical part upgraded to university curriculum level with final requirements corresponding to a university undergraduate degree. The new educational system reflects the changing and expanding role of fire brigades and the need for a professionally improved leadership. To put the new training system into a proper context, the varied and dissimilar responsibilities of a Swedish fire brigade officer should be touched upon. Four main sectors are identified: business administration, fire prevention, training of employed staff and rescue service operations. The main structure of the training system and the university curriculum are discussed.

Träkonstruktioner och brand. Kunskapsöversikt och forskningsbehov
- 1983
-
Reports (other academic/artistic)abstract
- En komplettering av det nuvarande kunskapsunderlaget for träets termiska egenskaper bör i första hand fokuseras mot värmeledningförmågan och specifika värmekapaciteten för dels förkolnat trä , dels oförkolnat trä inom temperaturområdet over 100 ºC. Angelägen är också en vidareutveckl- av de samband, som krävs for en beräkning av träets reaktionsvärme vid verkliga brandförhållanden med utgångspunkt från data om entalpiinnehåll och fasomvandlingsenergi.

Design of Fire-exposed Steel Structures - The Swedish Approach
- 1981
-
Reports (other academic/artistic)abstract
- A rational, analytical approach to a fire engineering design of load-bearing steel structures is described. The method of design is directly based on the natural compartment fire concept and on strictly defined functional requirements and performance criteria. The method is permitted to be generally applied in Sweden, as one alternative, since about ten years. For facilitating the practical application, a comprehensive design basis has been worked out in the form of diagrams and tables for a direct determination of the maximum steel temperature during a complete compartment fire and the corresponding design load-bearing capacity of the fire exposed structure. The design basis is presented in a manual which has been given type approval for practical use by the National Swedish Board of Physical Planning and Building.

Rational Design Methodology for Fire Exposed Load Bearing Structures
- 1981
-
In: Fire Safety Journal. - : Elsevier BV. - 0379-7112.
-
Reports (other academic/artistic)abstract
- The state-of-art of reliability studies in the area of fire-exposed structures or structural members is illustrated, taking examples from published papers concerning load-bearing building structures of steel, reinforced concrete, and wood. In parallel, trends are described in the present development of rational structural fire design methods, principally adapted to modern loading and safety philosophy for the non-fire state. Statistically derived results are presented for fire-exposed, insulated steel structures in office buildings, giving the breakdown of the total variance in maximum steel temperature and load-bearing capacity into component variances as a function of the insulation characteristics. The safety index and probability of failure are compared numerically for different fire design procedures. The data presented are examples of the information which is required as input in a qualified systems analysis of fire exposed load-bearing structures.
