Experiment 8: Family Room Fire, Open Front Door, Open Family Room Window

This experiment was intended to examine the extent of fire damage inside a colonial style two-story structure with an open front door and open family room window. The fire was ignited in the family room. The fire developed and the furnished area of the family room transitioned to flashover. Primary fire suppression occurred through the open family room window.
