Abstract :

[en] A basis is presented for identifying partition design for which: 1) the use of one-dimensional thermal analysis in the fire modeling part of the problem would lead to reliable simulations of the fire environment, and 2) the resulting simulations can be used to provide the necessary boundary conditions input to solve the thermal/structural part of the problem, using two- or three-dimensional analyses, as required.
