An Experimental Investigation on the Impact of Burner Height and Location on the Characteristics of Externally Venting Flames

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fire sources in actual compartment fires exhibit a predominantly uneven spatial distribution. In this context, the impact of the height and location of the fire source, as well as the heat release rate (HRR) of the fire, on the thermal characteristics of Externally Venting Flames (EVF) is experimentally investigated.

Finalisation of the European Approach to Assess the Fire Performance of Facades—Brief Information on the Outcome of the Project

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This research was conducted within the framework of project SI2.825082, funded by the European Commission—DG GROW. The project's objective was to finalise a European approach for assessing the fire performance of façades under medium and large fire exposure conditions.

Combustion Properties of Timber in Historic Structures: Case Study of the São Pedro de Alcântara Chapel Fire

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Timber plays a fundamental role in the fire performance of historic building components, where ageing and environmental exposure can markedly influence its physical and chemical properties. This study presents an experimental investigation of the fire behaviour of Ocotea sp.

Vehicle Fires: Significant Fire Hazard in Transportation Infrastructure

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vehicle flammability poses a critical threat to transportation infrastructure, with recent fires in depots, tunnels, and car parks highlighting systemic vulnerabilities. These incidents often result in the total loss of vehicles and buildings, revealing the inadequacy of current fire safety standards for vehicle materials.

Fire Spread Characteristics of Cavities in Modular Constructions and Ventilated Facades

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Modular buildings have gained popularity as a sustainable building solution. However, the uncertainty of fire spread through vertical cavity spaces in such buildings has become a concern. Therefore, this study aims to fill the gap in fire behaviour within vertical cavity spaces.
