Optimized structure of ventilated facades
Today, one of the most universal types of lining, in terms of the value for money, is rightly believed to be suspended facade systems. Ventilated facade is characterized by the presence of the vertical air gap.

Forced Draught Impact on Externally Venting Flames: An Experimental and Numerical Investigation
ABSTRACT Wind can significantly influence fire development and spread in urban and forest environments causing fatal consequences for the public, the first responders, and the environment. Wind‐driven fires can have a significant impact on structural fires as wind can increase the fire's intensity, development, and flame spread.
