Fire resistance and smoke control tests for door and shutter assemblies, openable windows and elements of building hardware - Part 3: Smoke control test for door and shutter assemblies
Also Known As:
DIN EN 1634-3 is a standard that focuses on fire resistance and smoke control tests for door and shutter assemblies, openable windows, and elements of building hardware. It specifically addresses the smoke control test for door and shutter assemblies.
The standard outlines a test method to determine the leakage of cold and warm smoke from one side of a door assembly to the other. This is done under specific test conditions, which are described in detail within the standard. The primary objective of this test is to evaluate the effectiveness of door and shutter assemblies in controlling the spread of smoke in the event of a fire.
By conducting this test in accordance with DIN EN 1634-3, manufacturers and regulatory bodies can assess the smoke control capabilities of door and shutter assemblies. This helps ensure that these components meet the necessary standards for fire safety and can effectively prevent the spread of smoke during a fire incident.
