Several common façade systems utilize composite panels made of combustible materials and can significantly enhance the fire risk, as shown by many recent building fires. This study presents the development of a full-scale research facility at IIT Gandhinagar to better understand the behaviour of real fires involving façade systems. Such a facility will facilitate scientific studies pertaining to façade fires and help in improving fire safety of such buildings.trueFaçade testing facility | Green building regulations | Leap frog effect | Real-fire behaviourArticlehttps://doi.org/10.18520/cs/v115/i9/1782-17871782-17871 November 20184arJournal4WOS:000449515300039
