RR285 - Protection of piping systems subject to fires and explosions

This document aims to fill this gap by providing guidance on the protection and response of piping systems and piping supports subject to fires and explosions. The guidance covers the methods used to carry out both simplified design checks and advanced non linear analysis. It forms the background document to the FABIG Technical Note, to be published, on the protection of topside piping and piping supports against fires and explosions.
