Guidelines for applying insulating coatings (such as intumescent paints or cementitious materials) to delay steel heating.

The standard emphasizes two distinct levels of hazard assessment to balance safety and cost-effectiveness:

Determining how the structure behaves under stress. Why Access the API RP 2FB PDF?

Guidance on applying more complex, site-specific computational fluid dynamics (CFD) studies in lieu of nominal loads. C. Structural Response and Design
