This book addresses the performance of a multi-storey timber building subjected to a model fire that represents a real, potentially devastating internal fire. Readers will learn about factors concerning fire hazards in buildings; the mechanisms of how fires start and spread; and the degrading impact of fire on wood and wood-based materials, especially their mechanical properties. The book also discusses the fire resistance of timber buildings and the design principles for fire safety, summarised in Eurocodes.
In turn, a fire test on a full-size wooden structure demonstrates the principles discussed. The test makes up an essential part of the book, as to its individual steps: the development, planning, execution and subsequent assessment. This is complemented by detailed temperature monitoring at hundreds of individual spots and the reaction of the wood constructions, illustrated in extensive photo documentation.
The temperature and fire development presented there show the fire's initial mechanism and its further behaviour in a wood construction. The test proved the feasibility of fire protection and safe design of timber buildings, offering insights that can be generally applied in research, material and construction development. Accordingly, the book will be especially useful for architects, building and fire engineers, as well as researchers dealing with the fire performance of timber buildings.
Prof. Ing. Anton Osvald, CSc., professor, formerly working at the University of Zilina and the Technical University in Zvolen. In both workplaces, he focused on the instruction and research in fire safety. He was the principal investigator of several grant projects and the author and co-author of several scientific monographs and university textbooks.

doc. Bc. Ing. Linda Makovická Osvaldová, PhD. is Associate Professor in the Department of Fire Engineering at the Faculty of Security Engineering, University of Zilina, Slovakia. In her scientific and educational activities, she deals with the issues of testing of materials used in technological processes and in building constructions, as well as with natural materials in forest fires. She is an active member of both domestic and foreign organizations. She is a member of several editorial boards of foreign and domestic magazines. Her scientific research activities are varied and published both in indexed journals and in indexed conference. She is active in international fora where she has presented the results of various projects. From year 2016 she is in a chairman of the international scientific conference "Wood and Fire Safety".
