- Abstract
- Formulas are given for various building structures that make it possible to calculate the temperature in the structure during a fire. It is pointed out that there will be small deviations because the heating accouding to the standard fire curve is influenced by a heating through constant temperature that is equal to the average temperature of the fire curve. The calculation of the temperatures of a structure can then be simplified to the calculation of some dimensionless parameters and the determination of the respective temperature with the aid of graphs.
