Eurocode 6: Design of masonry structures - Part 1-2: General rules - Structural fire design
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 1996-1-2 standard focuses on the design of masonry structures under the condition of fire exposure. This standard is meant to be used alongside EN 1996-1-1 and EN 1991-2-2, which provide the general rules for masonry structure design under normal temperature conditions.
The purpose of DIN EN 1996-1-2 is to identify any variations or additional guidelines required for masonry design in the event of a fire. This standard is crucial for ensuring the safety and integrity of masonry structures during a fire. It addresses the specific challenges and considerations that arise when masonry materials are exposed to high temperatures and fire conditions. By incorporating the guidelines and provisions outlined in this standard, designers can account for the effects of fire on masonry structures and implement appropriate measures to enhance their fire resistance.
