Standard Calculation Methods for Structural Fire Protection

Copublished with the Society of Fire Protection Engineers (SFPE)

Standard Calculation Methods for Structural Fire Protection provides the most current and proven methods for calculating the fire resistance of selected structural members and barrier assemblies made from structural steel, plain concrete, reinforced concrete, timber and wood, concrete masonry, and clay masonry. This Standard, a thorough revision of ASCE/SEI/SFPE Standard 29-99, is a joint effort between the ASCE's Structural Engineering Institute and SFPE.

This Standard provides architects, engineers, building officials, and others with the methods of calculating fire resistance equivalent to the ASTM E119 standard fire test.
