Short title	Three panels: heat through an intact wall, cracks with smoke and a collapsed wall.
Image title	Panel 1, conduction: flames on one side of an intact wall; heat arrows pass through the wall and heat the receiving fuel on the other side, with no cracks. Panel 2, loss of integrity: flame and smoke pass through a crack in the wall towards the receiving fuel. Panel 3, loss of stability: the wall has collapsed, leaving rubble, and a large flame reaches the receiving fuel.
