Review of Fire Tests on Seats for Passenger Coaches and the Materials Used in Them
This study shows how the fire regulations for railway seats used in international traffic have changed over the last 30 years. In the past, a paper cushion was used as a flame source, and today, a 15 kW burner is used; consequently, the requirements have

Fire Resistance Tests of Various Fire Protective Coatings
Tests were carried out on more than 14 different samples of fire protective coatings in order to investigate a relation between the thickness of the intumescent fire protection coating and the time of exposure to heat. A number of coatings of different chemical composition enabled to determine the fire resistance behaviour patterns. During test the one-

Fire Test Standard in the Light of Fire Research
Because of the inadequacy of the fire load concept and of the large subject area covered by ASTM Methods E 119, the results of standard fire tests do not represent either the times for which building elements actually withstand building fires, or “rating” values expressing the “fire endurance quality” of the various building elements on a unique scale.

EFFECTS OF A TRAVELLING FIRE ON A CONCRETE COLUMN – TISOVA FIRE TEST
The Tisova Fire Test was a large fire test conducted in the Czech Republic in January 2015 inside of a 4-storey concrete frame building, with concrete and composite deck floors. The test compartment was on the ground floor and the fire compartment had a total area of ca. 230m<sup>2</sup> with a height of 4.4m.

Research on the Scale Fire Test and Fire Resistance of the One-Way Slab of a Metro
To address the difficulty in conducting fire tests to verify the fire-resistance limit of large one-way slabs with heavy loads in a metro, a scale fire test method is proposed based on the bearing capacity calculation of the one-way slab under fire.

Aromatic vs. Aliphatic Hyperbranched Polyphosphoesters as Flame Retardants in Epoxy Resins
The current trend for future flame retardants (FRs) goes to novel efficient halogen-free materials, due to the ban of several halogenated FRs. Among the most promising alternatives are phosphorus-based FRs, and of those, polymeric materials with complex ...
