Fire resistance indicates how long a construction element can withstand fire, expressed in terms of limiting flame passage, heat radiation and temperature rise. The aim is to confine the fire to the fire compartment for the required duration.
Fire resistance tests are carried out using our large or small furnace (4 × 3 m | 1.5 × 2.5 m). The constructions are exposed to a standardised fire curve (>30 min exceeding 800 °C | >60 min approaching 1,000 °C). In addition to the standard fire curve, the external fire curve and the hydrocarbon curve (HC curve) can also be applied. The test results are classified in accordance with EN 13501-2.
We perform fire resistance tests for the following construction types:
