dc.description.abstractWood is a natural and traditional building material, as popular today as ever, and presents advantages. Physically, wood is strong and stiff, but compared with other materiais like steel is light and flexible. Wood material can absorb sound very effectively and it is a relatively good heat insulator. But dry wood does bum quite easily md produces a great deal ofheat energy. The main disadvantage is the high levei ofcombustion when exposed to fíre, where the point at which it catches fire is fi-om 200-400°C. After fu-e exposure, is need to determine if the charred wooden stmctures are safe for future use. Design methods require the use ofcomputer modelling to predict the fíre exposure and the capacity ofstructures to resist fhose action. Also, large or small scale experimental tests are necessary to calibrate and verify the numerical models. The thermal model is essential for wood stmctures exposed to fire, because predicts the charring rate as a fünction offire exposure. The charring rate calculation ofmost stmctural wood elements allows simple calculations, but is more complicated for situations where the fire exposure is non-standard and in wood elements protected with other materiais.pt_PT
