42 Conclusions

43 Conclusions The use of combustible materials in the façades systems of tall building represents an increase risk of fire spread Real behaviour of façades can be determined only through large-scale testing There is a need of harmonised European large-scale testing method for façade systems The risk of vertical fire spread on façades can be reduced by appropriate design solutions fire barriers A new design composite fire barrier has been tested and the results shown that it has the potential to reduce vertical fire spread
