ABSTRACT: The paper describes fire test in two-floor experimental building performed in September 2011
in Czech Republic. In upper floor scenario of travelling fire was prepared. As flames were spreading across the
compartment considerable temperature gradients appeared. To study travelling fire, FDS 5 is used. Numerical
results of gas and beam temperatures validated by experimental measurements were compared ...
