Abstract
This study examines the isolation-heat performance of fire proof fabric that is equipped over ceiling board in order to secure the capability of arresting the spread of a fire at roof 'Jucsim' structure of Wooden Cultural Properties. For this examination, I conduct experiments with the model and compare two construction methods of fire proof fabric, or flat-type, folding-type. The experiments show the following results. In case of installing the fire proof fabric in flat-type, when the temperature under the ceiling board is $750^{\circ}C$, the temperatures over the ceiling board is $50^{\circ}C$; the difference is $700^{\circ}C$. Compared with the case of removing fire proof fabric, the temperature over the ceiling board is lower by approximately $580^{\circ}C{\sim}600^{\circ}C$. Therefore it can be said that the construction of fire proof fabric enhances the isolation-heat performance. In case of installing the fire proof fabric in folding-type, when the temperature under the ceiling board is $600^{\circ}C$, the temperatures over the ceiling board is $65^{\circ}C$; the difference is approximately $530^{\circ}C$. Thus its isolation-heat performance is a little inferior to the flat-type equipment.
