An Investigation of the Fire Resisting Doorset in Practice

摘要

This report contains the results of a survey of fire resisting doorsets in occupied buildings carried out in 1980. Only 8% of the doorsets examined could apparently achieve their required periods of fire resistance when tested. This report contains the results of the survey, a resume of current design practice and technology for fire resisting doorsets, and an attempt is made to highlight problems in specification, installation and maintenance.
