Chapter 2 in the book:
The Dalmarnock Fire Tests: Experiments and Modelling, Edited by G. Rein, C. Abecassis Empis and R. Carvel, Published by the School of Engineering and Electronics, University of Edinburgh, 2007. ISBN 978-0-9557497-0-4This chapter describes the experimental set-up of Dalmarnock Fire Tests One and Two.
While Test One was planned to allow a fire to develop freely to post-flashover conditions,
Test Two was designed to allow for ventilation management. A detailed account of the
building layout, the set-up of the different experiments and measurements carried out
during the full-scale tests is given, together with the specifics of the instrumentation
installed in the building. A description of the fuel load and the ventilation conditions
during both tests is also presented. Due to the large amount of data presented, the
chapter is organised so that the most relevant information is shown in the main body of
the text, and additional detail, such as the instrument coordinates, is appended in an
annex at the end of the chapter
