WARNING
The attention of all persons concerned with managing and carrying out this fire resistance test is drawn to the fact that fire testing can be hazardous and that there is a possibility that toxic and/or harmful smoke and gases can be developed during the test. Mechanical and operational hazards can also arise during the construction of the test elements or structures, their testing and disposal of test residues. An assessment of all potential hazards and risks to health should be made and safety precautions should be identified and provided. Written safety instructions should be issued. Appropriate training should be given to relevant personnel. Laboratory personnel should ensure that they follow written safety instructions at all times.

The test equipment specified in EN 1363-1 and EN 1363-2 shall be used where applicable. SIST EN 1364-4:2007

4.2 Furnace configuration For the installation of the specimen, wall or floor furnaces shall be modified, if necessary, to accommodate the three-dimensional construction. The three dimensional construction includes the horizontal linear gap seal. The test according to EN 1364-4 is performed on a three-dimensional specimen to allow an exposure of a number of surfaces of the upstand/downstand (spandrel area) and incorporates a standard floor, which provides the support for the curtain wall. The lining of the furnace closure shall comply with EN 1363-1 or may consist of aerated autoclaved concrete with a density of 400 to 550 kg/m3. 4.3 Supporting floor A supporting floor is provided as a base for the attachment of the fixings and as a location for the horizontal linear gap seal under examination. If information on the fire resistance of the curtain walling in conjunction with a particular type of floor construction is required, such a construction shall be used, see 7.2. SIST EN 1364-4:2007

6.5 Design 6.5.1 General The test specimen shall be:  either fully representative of the construction intended for use in practice, including fixings, expansion joints, horizontal linear gap seals, any surface finishes and fittings which are essential and may influence its behaviour in the test,  or be designed to obtain the widest applicability of the test result to other similar constructions. For standard configurations see Annex B. All design features which influence fire performance shall be included. Where the width of a single spandrel panel (upstand/downstand) is less than 3 m, at least 3 panels with the mid panel at the maximum dimension shall be incorporated in the test specimen. Where the width of the panel is greater than or equal to 3 m, at least 3 panels with the mid panel at the maximum dimension and the side panels at least 50 cm wide shall be incorporated in the test specimen.
