| description abstract | Current methodologies of fire origin investigation have yet to include the structural deformations witnessed in steel buildings as a viable indicator of the area of fire origin. In this paper, the validity of using such a technique for fire investigation has been assessed. A series of full-scale burn tests was conducted to validate the proposed methodology. Although it did not turn out that the greatest magnitude of deflection was always indicative of the precise area of origin, the tests have shown that the deflections can be used as important indicators of the area of origin. | |
