A fire occurring at a building causes severe damages to its structural members and brings unexpected collapse. Therefore, the building regulation of each nation has to define fire resistance to prevent building collapse due to high temperatures. In general, the fire resistance of each structural member can be evaluated by two methods. One is prescriptive method that is guided by a specific building regulation containing fire resistance examples or by the application of new examples tested fire experimental procedures. The other is performance based fire engineering design. Being an engineered and scientific method, it utilizes the results obtained from the calculation of fire severities, temperatures of members and so on. The easiest way to evaluate the fire resistance of a steel member is to compare its limiting temperature and maximum temperature. Therefore, constructing the database of the limiting temperatures of structural elements is very important in performance based fire engineering design. This paper is to derive the fire resistance and limiting temperatures of rectangular hollow sections under loads.
