In most situations, this strategy is suitable for design and fire safety in wooden materials due to the high variability of these materials. Unfortunately, the use of this criterion penalizes materials where great efforts were made to achieve a high level of quality control.2351-2352engFire safetywood materialsDETERMINATION OF CHARACTERISTIC VALUES IN NBR 7190/1997 FOR DESIGN AND FIRE SAFETY IN WOOD MATERIALS: HITS AND MISSESTrabalho apresentado em eventoWOS:000378595500420Acesso aberto
