abstract="PURPOSE This paper aims to discuss fire safety design of single-story, single compartment buildings and evaluates whether time to structural damage is a relevant criterion when lethal fire conditions develop long before any structural fire damage can occur. <br><br>DESIGN/METHODOLOGY/APPROACH The proposed approach is demonstrated in a design case study of a steel truss in a typical Swedish single-story steel frame building. <br><br>FINDINGS While not complying with deemed to satisfy fire resistance ratings, it is argued that the proposed design still can fulfill the life safety objective. <br><br>ORIGINALITY/VALUE This paper presents practical application of a conceptual paper presenting a general approach to structural fire safety design and the life safety objective.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
