성능위주설계의 설계화원 정보는 피난안전성 평가에 직접적인 영향을 미치기 때문에, 실물화재 실험에 근거한 설계화원의 설정이 매우 중요하다. 복합영상관에 대한 성능위주설계의 신뢰성을 개선시키기 위하여, 상영관 의자에 대한 화재실험을 통해 열발생률과 화재확산속도 등의 화재거동에 관한 정보를 제공한다. 이를 위하여 실제 상영관과 유사하게 배열된 다수의 객석 의자가 적용되었다. 주요 결과로서, 객석의자 1개에 대하여 최대 열발생률과 단위 질량당 발열량은 각각 415~988 kW와 15.2~23.8 MJ/kg의 범위를 갖는다. 신형과 구형 객석의자의 평균 단위 질량당 발열량은 각각 23.6 MJ/kg과 16.7 MJ/kg으로 측정되었다. 즉, 신형의자의 증가된 플라스틱 및 쿠션재의 함량으로 인하여, 신형이 구형에 비해 화재위험성이 높은 것으로 확인되었다. 추가로 객석의자가 일렬로 배치될 때, 점화위치와 상관없이 0.39~0.42 m/min의 화재확산속도가 관찰되었다. 마지막으로 복합영상관의 성능위주설계를 위하여 객석의자의 최대 열발생률과 화재성장률로 구성된 화재성장곡선이 제안되었다.
