Timber Charring Behaviour

Timber Charring Behaviour is a material response phenomenon characterized by the rate and pattern of carbonization observed in wood elements when exposed to high temperatures, distinguishing it from other structural degradation mechanisms by its self-protective layering effect that influences fire resistance in structural fire engineering.
