Abstract: The Danish prescriptive code for fire protection of buildings [1] require an insulation material which holds a reaction to fire class poorer than class D-s2,d2 to be protected with at least a covering class K1 10 B-s1,d0 (or a protecting construction of class EI 30). According to the Danish approach the reaction to fire class of insulation materials must be evaluated on the insulation alone, that is, without any kind of facing [2]. In order to find the best solution to comply with the prescriptive code a Danish manufacturer of steel faced sandwich panels with PUR (polyisocyanurate) insulation asked DBI to carry out some exploratory fire tests to evaluate 4 different solutions.
