Summary

This document provides a methodology for assessing the performance of structures in the built
environment when exposed to a real fire.
This document, which follows the principles outlined in ISO 23932-1, provides a performance-based
methodology for engineers to assess the level of fire safety of new or existing structures.
NOTE The fire safety of structures is evaluated through an engineering approach based on the quantification
of the behaviour of a structure for the purpose of meeting fire safety objectives and can cover the entire time
history of a real fire (including the cooling phase), and its consequences related to fire safety objectives such as
life safety, property protection and/ or environmental protection.
