Webinar: Advanced Solutions and Best Practices in Structural Fire Engineering
Join us for a live webinar on Wednesday 27th May 2026 at 1:00 PM (BST) focusing on advanced solutions and best practices in Structural Fire Engineering (SFE).
Advanced Solutions and Best Practices in Structural Fire Engineering
Presented by Mikko Salminen and Tuomas Hakamäki, this webinar will highlight practical, advanced approaches in SFE tailored for architects, developers, and contractors who are seeking to strengthen their expertise in performance-based fire design and move beyond the constraints of prescriptive code compliance. Attendees will gain insight into best practices applicable to both new and existing structures.
SFE revolves around conducting a comprehensive analysis of the thermal and structural responses of specific structural elements, components or the entire structural framework. It plays a significant role in improving the safety of buildings and structures by providing an accurate understanding of their behaviors during fires.
This session will address the limitations of certain building codes and standards, which are not always able to account for every possible scenario. It will highlight why it is essential for stakeholders, including manufacturers, architects, and designers, to adopt informed and adaptable approaches when working with structural materials. Presenters will focus on the importance of a holistic approach to structural fire design in effectively addressing the complex fire safety challenges associated with modern construction.
In this session, we’ll show based on real life case studies how a holistic, performance-based approach can:
- Address complex fire safety challenges
- Enable efficient and innovative design solutions
- Provide realistic modelling for non-standard structures
