TY - JOUR PY - 2012// TI - Firebrand generation data obtained from a full-scale structure burn JO - International journal of wildland fire A1 - Suzuki, Sayaka A1 - Manzello, Samuel L. A1 - Lage, Matthew A1 - Laing, George SP - 961 EP - 968 VL - 21 IS - 8 N2 - A full-scale, proof-of-concept experiment was conducted to investigate firebrand production from a burning structure. In this experiment, researchers from National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) were invited to set up instrumentation and collect firebrands using an array of water pans during a structure burn-down. The size and mass distribution of firebrands collected from the burning structure was compared with those measured from vegetation as well as historical firebrand investigations and found to be larger and broader than those of prior studies from historical firebrand investigations.
