Abstract
A simple folding mechanism, which considers the contributions of internal unprotected beams and protected edge beams, has been proposed for isolated slab panels in fire conditions. The current study extends the mechanism to include the reinforcement in the slab as well as continuity across the protected edge beams. Structural failure of the panel depends on the applied loads, the relative beam sizes, their locations within the building, their arrangement in the slab panel, the panel's location and the severity of fire exposure. These factors are considered in the development of a number of collapse mechanisms for verification so they may eventually serve as an additional check within the Bailey-BRE design method, to make it more robust for routine design of composite floors in fire. Comparisons are made with the finite element software Vulcan and other design acceptance criteria.
