The fire design according to Eurocode is more conservative than in the Finnish building codes due to differences in the charring rate and the lateral torsional buckling. The Eurocode design resulted in a higher cross section than the Finnish code, when using the same load combination factor for snow load. The reliability analysis showed that the fi...
