The impact of fire scenario to the collapse of a tall structure

Bogazici University, Istanbul, Turkey
ABSTRACT: The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of the fire load on a tall structure, and draw
conclusions for a more robust structural design. If a building is not properlydesigned and constructed to withstand
potentially catastrophic events due to risk factors posed by fires, such disasters can nullify the benefits gained
from green construction. Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) is a concept developed by the
U.S. Green Building Council and other inter ...
