Fire and Smoke Damage?

We are going to look at a potential repair job that involves fire and smoke damage to the floor joists and wall caused by an in floor furnace.

Fire damage is something I do not have any experience with. What are things I need to look out for? How do I determine what has been damaged by smoke and fire and what needs to be replaced or repaired? Before looking at it, I am thinking gut the affected area and start from scratch but wanted to know what to look for with fire and smoke damage that might be hiding or not visible.
