An
 objective
 of
 construction
 development
 is
 cutting
 down
 of
 wood
 and
 woody
 material
 buildings
 
production
 and
 mounting
 expenditures.
 Those
 are
 aroused
 by
 raw
 materials
 large
 mass
 and
 great
 
energy
  consumption
  during
  manufacturing
  and
  mounting,
  as
  well
  as
  negative
  impact
  to
 
environment
  by
  transportation
  and
  capital
  construction
  technologies
  that
  increase
  hazardous
 
effluents
  in
  atmosphere.
  Specific
  aim
  of
  construction
  development
  by
  Latvia
  University
  of
 
Agriculture
  is
  design
  of
  the
  innovative
  self-­‐load-­‐bearing
  panel
  and
  construction
  elements
  from
 
cell-­‐like
 wood
 material
 products
 and
 their
 mounting
 technologies
 improvement.
 
Light
  weight
  construction
  decreases
  mounting
  costs
  thereby
  improving
  efficiency
  of
  building
 
technologies
  and
  decrease
  energy
  demand.
  Cellular
  wood
  material
  Dendrolight®
  is
  an
  alternative
 
to
  decrease
  the
  mass
  average
  material
  density
  in
  wood
  construction
  an
  average
  of
  200
  kg
  m-­‐3
  A
 
drawback
  of
  cellular
  construction
  is
  good
  air
  supply
  in
  the
  material’s
  cellular
  structure
  that
 
decreases
 its
 fire
 safety
 parameters
 (Buksans
 et
 al.
 2013).
 
The
 coating
 on
 the
 bases
 of
 inorganic
 components
 and
 plant
 fibre
 material
 was
 designed
 with
 the
 
objective
 to
 improve
 wood
 cellular
 material
 reaction
 to
 fire
 performance
 (Morozovs
 et
 al.
 2014).
 
The
  reaction
  to
  fire
  wood
  cellular
  material
  with
  the
  above
  mentioned
  coating
  (Fig.
  1)
 
corresponded
  to
  class
  B
  according
  EN
  13823.
  The
  fire
  performance
  of
  coated
  material
  will
  be
 
discussed.
