Abstract
The project was to develop fire containment criteria of aircraft interior panels such as burnthrough time, rate of back face temperature rise, evaluation of selected combustible and toxic gases, heat flux rate, and other parameters that affect fire containment, such as structural integrity. The test were conducted to evaluate the fire performance of panels under almost full-scale test conditions.
