IDF studio has been appointed to carry out a fire resistance assessment regarding the bearing capacity of the metallic structure of terminal AB.02 that constitutes a part of Aviobridges as regards the extension of "Marco Polo" airport located in Tessera (Venice). The verifications have been performed using the thermal actions induced by the standard nominal fire curve (ISO 834). For this reason, the indirect stresses caused by the structural members adjacent to those under consideration, can be neglected.
Indeed, the standard reference Eurocode BS EN 1991-1-2, § 4.1.4 cites the following:
"Indirect actions from adjacent members need not be considered when fire safety requirements refer to
members under standard fire conditions".
