T1 - Constitutive modeling for fire engineering purposes—The challenge of modeling creep in an appropriate way T2 - Structures in Fire, Proceedings of the Ninth International Conference N2 - The phenomenon of creep of structural steel in fire engineering is gaining more and more interest. Due to shortcomings of the EC3 constitutive model and other approaches based on classical creep theory an alternative approach mainly based on the ideas of Krempl is proposed. Due to this so-called operator approach the material as well as the constitutive model is looked upon as an operator. The application of this view serves as a guide through the analysis of the relationship between experimental facts and constitutive theory especially in the context of transient creep.
