CSIRO Infrastructure Technologies Group provide an extensive range of independent testing, assessment and consulting services to support the development of better building products and systems used in Australia’s infrastructure sector.
Within our group we operate the most comprehensive fire research, consulting and testing facility in Australia, which combines our expertise and full-scale fire testing equipment to simulate a wide range of fire scenarios.
In this specialised area:
- We are able to undertake a wide range of tests of materials and elements for industry based on Australian, international and many other standards, as our facilities are registered by the National Association of Testing Authorities (NATA).
- We can also assist you with interpreting results, assess conformity with specification, assist with research and development, and provide guidance on construction in bushfire-prone areas.
- Our fire systems research and consulting services can evaluate a range of automatic fire detection, alarm and protection equipment, as well as fire suppression systems, to Australian and international Standards.
We have made a significant contribution to the Australian standards for fire detection equipment and maintains an ongoing commitment to standards development.
Other services include, product compliance, special investigations, on-site testing, audit sample testing and test specification development.
