Testing of Materials for Fire Protection Needs

Abstract

In general, technical practice, there is a need to evaluate materials as they are, or to evaluate their combinations (composites). It is important to evaluate their technical characteristics such as their physical and mechanical properties. Many materials are tested for their exposure to certain climatic conditions, static or dynamic load, etc.
