Based on the current knowledge in the field of fire design of timber structures this paper presents a generic fire safety concept for tall timber buildings. First, the paper gives an overview of fire safety concepts and presents experimental results on the fire performance of timber structures under natural fire conditions relevant for tall timber buildings. Then, the main differences between medium-rise and tall buildings with regard to fire safety are discussed and the formulation of a generic fire safety concept for tall timber buildings is presented. |
