Theobald, C.R., 1968. THE CRITICAL DISTANCE FOR IGNITION FROM SOME ITEMS OF FURNITURE. Fire Research Notes 736
ABSTRACT
As part of a study of the growth of fire in buildings, single items of furniture have been burned in a well-ventilated compartment and the distances found at which these could just ignite nearby wood specimens representing unignited furniture. Ignition distances found ranged from more than 1.2 m for a tall wardrobe to less than 150mm for an easy chair.
