6. Temperature distribution and charring penetrations in timber assemblies exposed to parametric fire curves : Comparisons between tests and TASEF predictions
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Byggkonstruktion och brandAbstract : Four furnace tests have been performed using two different parametric fire curves and the results are compared with computer simulations and Eurocode calculations. What differentiates the parametric fire curve from other fire curves is in particular the cooling phase, something that has proven to be hard to model for timber structures. READ MORE

8. Experimental Fire Study of Expanded Polystyrene Insulation in Concrete and Lightweight Concrete Wall Constructions
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurserAbstract : In today’s building industry creating and finding a cheaper and more efficient way of construction with the same standards is the primary goal. The necessity in testing the constructions in different scenarios is of highest interest, primarily in saving future lives but also in the residual value for the insurance point of view. READ MORE

9. The inter- and intra-specific variability of charcoal traits in boreal ecosystems
University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and ManagementAbstract : Wildfire-produced charcoal has been shown to influence key soil ecological processes. However, few studies have considered the role of interacting variables in describing the wide variability of charcoal ecological traits under natural und semi-natural conditions. READ MORE

10. Fire Resistance in Cross-laminated Timber : Brandmotstånd hos korslaminerat massiv trä
University essay from JTH, ByggnadsteknikAbstract : This report deals with the fire resistance of cross-laminated timber (CLT). Themain purpose is to verify a new model on CLT and its ability to sustain itsbearing capacity when exposed to fire. To establish this, a series of bendingtestshas been conducted in combination with fire exposure of the CLT. READ MORE
