Thermal considerations
Structural steels lose strength and stiffness
quickly when subjected to temperatures in
excess of 800o F.
From a design perspective, it is not necessary
to quantify this loss, only guard against
likelihood of its occurrence.
This is usually done by insulating steel (fire
proofing) or by reducing heat produced in
fires (sprinklers).

Thermal considerations
Anticipated thermal variations must also be
considered, specially for long buildings.
Expansion joints are typically provided at 200250 ft intervals.
The thermal expansion coefficient for
structural steel is 0.0000067/oF. A 100 ft long
beam subjected to a 100 degree (oF) increase
in temperature will expand 0.8 in.
