The second major revision has been due to the impact of the large scale
fire tests carried out at Cardington. This has meant there has had to be a re-assessment of the behaviour of composite steel–concrete frame structures, in that the whole structure performance markedly outweighs that of single elements. Equally, there are a number of guides produced by either the Institution of Structural Engineers or the Building Research Establishment promoting Structural Fire Safety Engineering. The best available texts were used for the EuroCode material as some of the EuroCodes had not at the time when this text was prepared been finally approved or released by CEN (Comité Européen de Normalisation) for publication by the appropriate National Standards Organization. It is thus possible that there might be discrepancies between this text and the final published EN versions of the EuroCodes. It is hoped such variations are slight and will mostly be concerned with interpretive matters or notation and not basic principles.
