- Abstract
- This report is to be used as a guide in determining what an initial fire will look like. It is a summary of a large number of full scale tests on different items and under various conditions performed at different laboratories. The results shown are primarily the rate of heat release (RHR), as well as the production of smoke and generation of carbon monoxide. The results are shown as curves in this report, but are also digitally available in a database.
