Abstract

A simple method for the design of steel columns in fire conditions is presented. The method adopts the European buckling curves for the design of axially loaded bare metal sections as the basic design curves for steel columns in fire conditions. The method has been compared with experimental results made recently in several European countries and the agreement is shown to be excellent and on the safe side.
