Design Fire 2: Fire Within the Class 1 House 
The peak heat release rate for a dwelling fire load is based on full-scale fire test data of a typical apartment 
fire (Alam and Beever, 1996) which is expected to have the same fire load density to that of a house. The 
measured heat release rate is given in Figure 4-8 and shows that a peak heat release rate of 7.5 MW is 
reached at flashover.
