The amount of heat, which is released by fire loads during the combustion
process, depends on the material characteristics, the ventilation
conditions, the storage density and the distribution. To evaluate the
structural stability of buildings in case of fire, the fire load has to be
quantified. In Germany, the fire load is quantified by using the combustion
factor m, while internationally the combustion efficiency χ is
applied. Both factors assess the burning behavior of materials, but the
determination is carried out in different ways. Since the testing facility
was abolished fifteen years ago, it is not possible to determine the combustion
factor m anymore. So, it should be found out, if the combustion
efficiency χ is a convenient method to quantify the fire load under the
consideration of the German standards. As a part of the research, combustion
efficiencies χ were determined for eight materials in the cone
calorimeter and the single burning item test at different heat fluxes.
The values of the combustion efficiencies χ as well as the corresponding
combustion factors m were discussed and compared to the values of the
literature. The results show an influence of the testing facility on the
combustion efficiency. The values of the combustion efficiency determined
in the single burning item test were higher than the values from
the cone calorimeter.
Fire smoke contains a variety of highly toxic substances and can lead to unconsciousness within a few minutes and to death for critical concentrations. Currently the engineer’s methods of fire safety include various procedures to calculate the fire propagation and smoke spread in buildings.
However, up to now the evaluation and calculation of smoke concerning its optical properties and toxic potential on the basis of a detailed combustion is still a field of research. Since smoke composition is highly variable and not fully characterised it has to be examined whether and how the Chemical composition and the optical properties of smoke are correlating. A method has been developed that establishes the relation between the smoke components and smoke toxicity.
