Fire resistance testing of ETICS systems in Romania
The fire security of buildings can be increased by the decrease of fire propagation intensity resulting from compartment fires and by using sustainable building enveloping solutions, with the role of limiting the spread of fires to neighboring floors and adjacent buildings.

Zusammenfassung: | The fire security of buildings can be increased by the decrease of fire propagation intensity resulting from compartment fires and by using sustainable building enveloping solutions, with the role of limiting the spread of fires to neighboring floors and adjacent buildings. In this regard, research in the international literature highlights the need of conducting large-scale fire tests on the thermal insulation of buildings. The researchers from INCERC Bucharest have configured and adapted, for the first time in Romania, a large-scale stand designed to perform experimental tests to evaluate the fire resistance behavior of External Thermal Insulation Composite Systems (ETICS). The fire testing stand was designed following the analysis of fire resistance testing concepts of ETICS systems at European level. |
