14 th international conference4th - 6th July 2016.ProgrammeRoyal HollowayCollege- University of London -Near WindsorUK“FROM FIRE SCIENCE TO ENGINEERING”Since 1979, Interflam has brought togetherengineers, scientists, practitioners andregulators from around the globe to hearthe latest state of the art papers with thespecific intent to create an interfacebetween the researcher, the fire safetyengineer and the designer so that good firescience can be promptly harnessed toprovide a safer built environment.As with previous conferences theprogramme offers participants a friendlyand open atmosphere to interact withcolleagues from around the world andpresents ample opportunity to forge newrelationships outside their own industrial oracademic network. Keynote papers,parallel and poster sessions, exhibits, astudent workshop and the inclusive socialprogramme provide maximum opportunitiesfor networkingOver the 3 days there will be 120 oralpresentations along with 70 posters. Thiswill be one of the largest technicalprogrammes in the conference's 36 yearhistory.All presentations will be available in theConference Proceedings.PartnersSponsored byTECHNICAL SESSIONS INCLUDECodes and RegulationsCompositesDetection and SuppressionFacadesFire DynamicsFire InvestigationFire ResistanceFire RiskFlame Retardants and CoatingsFire Safety EngineeringFire Service and Building Fire SafetyFire TestingFurniture FlammabilityHeat Flux Measurement and CalculationsHuman Behaviour in FireIgnition and ExtinctionModellingModel ValidationPredictions of Soot Generation andVisibilityPyrolysis ModellingThermal Insulation and FibresWildland FireThe Programme Committee invites allthose interested in these broad researchareas to join colleagues this summer toexchange views and ideas in theconvenient and stunning collegiate settingof Royal Holloway College.
LOCATIONThe venue for the 14th conference will be at London University's Royal HollowayCollege. Noted for the Founder's Building, which is modelled on the Château deChambord in the Loire Valley, the flamboyant architecture make this one of the mostspectacular university buildings in the world. The College was officially opened byQueen Victoria in 1886 and includes the world-famous Picture Gallery housing a uniquecollection of Victorian paintings and Chapel with its fine reliefs and vaulted plasterceiling.The parkland campus, bordering Royal Windsor Great Park, is conveniently situatedjust 8 miles from Heathrow Airport, 5 mins from the M25 motorway (junc 13) and 35minutes from London's Waterloo Railway Station. The conference will have exclusiveuse of the Windsor Lecture Building which offers state of the art meeting facilities. Thereis ample car parking on campus.The campus has a convenience store and bank. It is a short walk (5mins) to the villageof Englefield Green with its pubs and restaurants and approx 10mins to Egham with itshops, banks, restaurants and the mainline railway station. Famous historic and RoyalWindsor is 10 minutes driving by car or bus.Founders BuildingWindsor Building TheatreConference ComplexRoyal Holloway College Location MapCollege ChapelChanging of the Guardin nearby Windsor
