Table 3 Charring rates for different fire scenarios

From: Modelling charring of timber exposed to natural fire

	Charring rates (mm/min)
	1st lamella		2nd lamella
	Experiment	Numerical	Experiment	Numerical
Scenario 1	1.43 (min 1.29–max 1.65)	1.58	No charring	No charring
Scenario 2	1.19 (min 1.13–max 1.4)	1.39	0.8 (min 0.72–max 0.86)	0.72
Scenario 3	0.85 (min 0.76–max 0.9)	0.98	0.92 (min 0.73–max 1.17)	1.09
