PRELIMINARY EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF DOUBLE-SKINNED FAÇADE

Fire hazard of the new architectural feature − double-skinned facade was examined experimentally. Full-scale burning tests on part of the design feature were carried out in a facility developed in a remote area of Northeast China. Before testing with glass panels, wood panels were used for preliminary tests. A total of 10 tests were performed. Surface temperature and heat flux received on the test panels are presented. Cracking patterns found on the glass panels are also described. Preliminary results give the possible smoke movement pattern inside the air cavity. Further detailed investigations should be carried out.
