The book includes an extensive analysis of wooden cladding, which is a flammable material in which the elements are connected lengthwise using various types of joint. The parameters of the experiment, as well as the setting, material criteria and evaluation criteria are described in detail. The results confirm that the joint type used has an impact on the selected evaluation criteria and thus also on the potential spread of fire Bibliography Includes bibliographical references Notes Online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on August 13, 2020) Subject Fire testing.
