    The Eurocode 3 part 1-2 gives some simple rules to determine the buckling length lfi of a steel column for fire design. In the case of a braced frame in which each storey comprises a separate fire compartment with sufficient fire resistance, Eurocode 3 suggests that the buckling length may be taken as lfi=0.5L in an intermediate storey and as lfi=0.7L in the top storey, where L is the system length in the relevant storey.http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/B6V2Y-4MYMP09-1/1/a7f3181ad12d91b9f77b14c13ecb449
