Using the opening factor 0.06 m1/2 from automatic fire ventilation and a fire load 450 MJ/m2 for a standard fire compartment the max. temperature at main reinforcement is 610 C, and at stirrups is 547 C. HOT condition: for Ts = 610 C. for Tl = 547 C. Steel force sHOT := s( 610 ) lHOT := s( 547 ) sHOT = 0.2554 lHOT = 0.3786
