BRE (UK): Large-scale fire testing according to BS 8414
Special requirements apply to rear-ventilated façade constructions. Not only the individual building materials, but also the entire system including substructure, insulation, joining elements, etc. must meet the fire safety requirements. In Great Britain, extensive large-scale fire tests were carried out by the testing institute BRE according to BS 8414-1. ALPOLICTM composite panels /fr and A2 fulfilled the high requirements of BR 135. This was proven in 11 different test setups.
