Abstract |
To analyze vertical fire spreadability of aluminum composite panel, real scale test of aluminum composite panel and fire retardant aluminum composite panel was conducted as well as analysis of domestic code, test and domestic reaserch resulted in following conclusion. Fire spread risk assessment of aluminum Composite Panel is impossible with the current regulations (Cone Calorimeter Test). It need to changes of regulatory and combustion expanded risk assessment and regulatory changes in the test methods need to be judged. Also, there is quite a big different between the general aluminum Composite Panel and semi-non combustible of aluminum Composite Panel. However it is also deemed to be danger when present in the sidewall to the top consisting of fire spread. From now on, it is needed the study about interpretation of fire spread and sidewall of vertical fire spread analysis not only experiments for aluminum Composite Panel. |
