A two-volume package comprising...

Introduction to structural fire engineering:

This new guidance updates and expands on the Institution’s Introduction to the fire safety engineering of structures (2003–2019) and includes new chapters on structural appraisal and firefighter safety.

and

Guide to the advanced fire safety engineering of structures: 

Here, the range of simple design approaches and useful background information provided in Introduction to structural fire engineering, is expanded.

Each stage of the advanced design process (modelling the fire, determining the heat trasfer to the structure, and high temperature structural analysis) is discussed. Case studies show how these approaches can result in a better understanding of structural behaviour during a fire.
