Behaviour of industrial buildings with steel portal frames under fire conditions. In 5th IBERIAN-LATIN-AMERICAN CONGRESS ON FIRE SAFETY – CILASCI 5.

However, steel although is a ductile material, it remains vulnerable to excessive temperatures. The recent accidents, which occurred in the industrial buildings of Sonatrach (petroleum industry in Algeria), in an urban area in Algiers or in an industrial zone in Skikda, remind us of the real danger and the potential risk of fire.engIndustrial buildingsSteel portal framesFire safetyNumerical simulationsBehaviour of industrial buildings with steel portal frames under fire conditionsconference object
