Passive fire protection: fundamentals of PFP, fire design and intumescent coatings
Structural steel loses strength at elevated temperatures. Using passive fire protection limits temperature rise in steel in order to prevent structures losing stability in the event of a fire, providing additional time for emergency response and safe evacuation of the building as well as minimizing damage to assets.
