AB - A survey and comparison of King's Buildings Campus (KB) and Informatics Forum was undertaken by the University of Edinburgh to review the narrow design fire specifications of the Eurocodes for many new buildings. Twenty-eight of the main buildings in the KB campus were inspected out of which 26 that have one or more enclosures fall outside the applicability of the Eurocode. The rooms/enclosures that were out of range with the Eurocode limitations were atriums open between floors, laboratories or workshops with skylights in the roof, larger lecture theatres where the height was over 4m, and floor areas over 500m2. The Informatics Forum at the University of Edinburgh had an open design that is beyond the range of applicability of traditional design methods. In the Informatics Forum, 8% of the total volume is inside the limitations. The difference in both the buildings could be due to the construction period.
