Large-scale fire tests of engineered wood systems
This report presents the four large-scale fire tests performed within the FIRENWOOD project. The aim of the tests was to verify the improved fire design models for the I-joists and crosslaminated timber. The results of the loaded floor test with cross-laminated timber were also compared with results from an unloaded model-scale test with similar lamella thicknesses and adhesive. The aim of the compartment fire test was to study the behaviour of I-joists in physically based fire compared to the behaviour in standard fire. The second aim was to compare the fire behaviour of the compartment made of timber frame assemblies with I-joists and the previously performed similar compartments made with CLT. All large-scale tests reported here were performed with engineered wood structures using adhesive No.9 ; The FIRENWOOD project is supported under the umbrella of ERA-NET Cofund ForestValue byGermany (Federal Ministry of Food and Agriculture (BMEL); Agency for Renewable Resources (FNR)project number FKZ 2219NR120), Sweden (The Swedish Research Council for Environment,Agricultural Sciences and Spatial Planning (FORMAS); Swedish Energy Agency (SWEA); SwedishGovernmental Agency for Innovation Systems (Vinnova) project number 2018-04989) and Norway(Research Council of Norway (RCN) project number 298587). ForestValue has received funding fromthe European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No773324.
