Abstract

During renovations of listed buildings there are changes in the use of individual spaces and therefore there is a need to solve the fire safety of the building according to valid standards and legislative requirements. As part of the fire safety of building it is necessary to prove the required fire resistance of its individual constructions. This article deals with fire resistance of structures of listed buildings with detailed focus on the design of constructions of additionally reinforced vaults.
