TMS 216-07

This standard describes acceptable methods for determiningthe fire resistance of concrete building and masonry buildingassemblies and structural elements, including walls, floorand roof slabs, beams, columns, lintels, and masonry fireprotection for structural steel columns. These methods shallbe used for design and analysis purposes and shall be basedon the fire exposure and applicable end-point criteria ofASTM E 119. This standard does not apply to compositemetal deck floor or roof assemblies.

The primary intended use of this document is for determiningthe design requirements for concrete and masonry elementsto resist fire and provide fire protection. Tolerance complianceto the provisions for concrete shall be based on informationprovided in ACI 117. Consideration for compliance to theprovisions for masonry shall be based on the informationprovided in ACI 530.1/ASCE 6/TMS 602.
