The BSI Task Group developed a new set of fire resistance periods using a two stage process and a graphical time equivalent approach. As a result, two new sets of fire resistance periods were developed for sprinkled and non sprinkled buildings. The resultant periods have a sound engineering basis and the transparent nature of the methodology indica...
A Task Group under the auspices of the British Standards Institution was formed to develop a new approach for specifying fire resistance requirements for building design for inclusion in the new DD 9999 'Code of practice for fire safety design, construction and the use of buildings'. The task group which was made up of researchers and fire safety e...

... In developing contemporary fire resistance guidance for structures in BS 9999 [12], Kirby et al. [13] adopted a Monte Carlo simulation-based time equivalence study to generate probability density functions (PDFs) and cumulative density functions (CDFs) of fire resistance period for a range of different occupancies, including residential flats, offices, and retail. The study adopted the parametric fire curves in EN 1991-1-2, sampling distributions for key parameters such as: room area, room height, window opening area, window opening height and FLED. ...
