Eurocode 5: Design of timber structures - Part 1-2: General - Structural fire design
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 1995-1-2 standard focuses on the design of timber structures in the event of a fire. It is meant to be used together with EN 1995-1-1 and EN 1991-2-2. This particular part of the standard specifically highlights any variations or additional requirements for design in comparison to regular temperature conditions.
The standard provides guidelines for designing timber structures to withstand the effects of fire exposure. It addresses the accidental situation of fire and outlines the necessary design considerations to ensure the safety and stability of timber structures during such events. This includes identifying any differences or supplements to the design that are required specifically for fire conditions.
By incorporating DIN EN 1995-1-2 into the design process, engineers and architects can ensure that timber structures are designed to meet the necessary fire safety requirements. This standard helps in the prevention of structural failure and enhances the overall fire resistance and performance of timber structures.
