- Abstract
- The temperatures within the NBS floor test furnace are monitored by 12 thermocouples distributed symmetrically with respect to the furnace plan, and located 12 in. below the specimen. Extra thermocouples were included during several standard fire tests to give the temperatures at other positions within the furnace.
