Summary
Fire poses a significant hazard to both building and bridge structures throughout their service life, making the preservation of structural integrity during and after fire incidents a critical safety imperative. Consequently, traditional prescriptive methods for structural fire safety are increasingly being replaced by advanced, performance-based engineered approaches. As a highly dynamic research area, structural fire engineering has been significantly transformed by recent technological innovations.
This Special Issue is dedicated to recent advances in the fire performance and post-fire evaluation of structures. We welcome contributions encompassing experimental studies, numerical modelling, novel design approaches, and the application of artificial intelligence and machine learning.
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
· High-temperature properties of construction materials (e.g., steel, concrete, timber, and FRP)
· Fire performance of building structures (e.g., steel, concrete, timber, and steel-concrete composite structures)
· Fire performance of bridge structures
· Post-fire evaluation and assessment of buildings and bridges
· Multi-hazard coupling of fire and other hazards
