The interest in
reducing
the risk of collapse during building
fires
enhanced the
appearance of studies and numerical techniques to
determine the structural behavior during fires as well as materials used in
construction. This concern was
reflected in the implementation by successive administrations of
Eurocodes
establishing the regulations for
the
structural design and verification of buildings and civil engineering
works.
The aim of this Workshop is sharing the experience of relevant research
groups,
representatives of Architects and Engineers and staff of public
agencies.
Intended for
Researchers of
the national and international mathematical community,
technical personnel of companies,
architects and engineers.
Objectives
The aim of this
Workshop
is sharing the experience of relevant research groups, representatives
of
Architects and Engineers and staff of public agencies, in particular, to
discuss issues related to:
Coupled
mathematical models for the numerical simulation of the behaviour of a
structure under fire.
Limit models for basic
structures and multi-structures in buildings.
Behaviour
laws for materials at high temperatures.
Numerical
simulation of thermomechanical deformation of structures during fire.
Software
of numerical simulation of building fire.
