Calculating The Strength of Burning Materials

So here's the deal, right? So a calc that had caused some confusion is the idea of calcing burning structures such as wood. See, here's the deal. @MarkGoldbridge calculated a feat where Dexter Morgan from the show Dexter busts through a burning wall.: https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/User_blog:MarkGoldbridge/Dexter_Destroys_A_Wall

See, the reason why I'm posting here is it's a bit beyond what we're used to on this wiki. Goldbridge was willing to provide some sources that should help out, as noted in this profile comment: https://vsbattles.com/members/flashlight237.5587/#profile-post-comment-106710

While he does give an estimate of a 6 to 74% strength reduction, it's just a ballpark estimate rather than anything concrete (since, you know, it's burning). Thing is heat usually reduces the strength of, like, anything and wood does this thing called "disintegrate" when it burns. Is there a way to calculate the strength of burning materials, or are we stuck in that regard?
