abstract="The conventional concept of fire resistance is examined and a newer concept introduced. A procedure is described by which a realistic appraisal of the performance of some key structural components of a building can be obtained. The performance of a simple structural element of a building has been analyzed under conditions corresponding to two realistic fires. It has been concluded that conventional concrete-steel structures are likely to function satisfactorily in a spreading fire, provided that the left double quote control parameter right double quote characterizing the nature of the fire is higher than a critical value.   <p>Language: en</p>",
