Journal of Structural Fire Engineering

Aims & Scope

The objective of the Journal of Structural Fire Engineering (JSFE) is to report state-of-the-art research and state of the practice on behaviour of structures and structural material including steel, concrete, masonry, timber and aluminium when subjected to high temperatures such as fire.

The journal also brings experimental and theoretical research and findings from advances in performance of structures in fire to engineering solutions.

These are valuable in assisting in improving the fire safety of buildings by linking the scientific research in structural fire engineering with fire protection and by improving buildings fire codes, and fire design standards.

The journal welcomes submissions on the following topics: Numerical modelling- Practical applications- Simple calculation models- Experimental studies- Material behaviour at high temperatures- Validation- Case studies- Codes of practice and design- Analysis of whole structure behaviour
