a) Replace A.3.1 by the following :
A.3.1 Furnace
A precise definition of a time-temperature curve for a fire-resistance test according to 4.1.1 is not sufficient as the sole characteristic
for determining the temperature fields in an element of building construction exposed to a fire. Another essential factor is the coeffi-
cient of heat transfer to the surfaces of the element exposed to the fire. This coefficient is primarily influenced by the convection and
radiation conditions.
For a prescribed time-temperature curve, the convection and radiation conditions can vary considerably from one furnace to another,
depending on variables such as the geometry of the furnace chamber and the thermal properties of its lining material, the type of fuel,
the number, type and location of the burners, and the method of ventilating the furnace. For this reason, test results obtained in
different laboratories may be difficult to correlate. Ideally, it would be preferable to control furnaces so as to regulate the total heat
flux at the surface of the test assembly. Until the serious instrumental difficulties inherent in such a scheme are
solved it is necessary to retain the time-temperature approach.
