SCI P313: Single storey steel framed buildings in fire boundary conditions

Building regulations require that external walls of single storey buildings that are close to the site boundaries should have fire resistance, to at least part of the walls. Any structure that provides support to such walls also has to have fire resistance. This publication provides, in addition to UK building regulations, design recommendations and guidance for single storey buildings for design in fire situations. Based on earlier research and study, it shows that fire protection to the roof structure, which would be expensive to provide, is not necessary, provided that recommendations on column base design are followed. The advice and recommendations cover single and multi-bay portal frames, monopitch portal frames, gable frames and frames with trussed roofs. The background to the recommendations is given and the mathematical models are explained.
