Episode 48 - Performance Based Structural Fire Design
About this episode
We're talking with Kevin Lamalva this week of Warrington Fire all about PBSFD. If you've never heard of this, in short, its using additional strength within the structure and rigorous analysis over a "blind" application of fireproofing material. There are a number of advantages here, from potential cost savings to a more defined level of performance. Traditional fire rating is terribly outdated, and PBSFD is on it's way to becoming a competitive technique. Kevin is the Author of many design guides, references, and white papers on the topic, and is truly one of the experts in the field.
