Jamie

A

NFPA 253 (ASTM E648), flooring radiant panel test - carpet, resilient floors, and other floor coverings in corridors. Two materials classes defined - Class I (not less than 0.45 W/cm2) and Class II (not less than0.22 W/cm2).

29
Q

Common name for NFPA 253 (E648)

A

flooring radiant panel test

carpet, resilient floors, and other floor coverings in corridors

30
Q

Common name for ASTM D2859

A

methamine pill test

carpets and rugs

31
Q

What are the two parts of ASTM E119 test?

A
  1. heat transfer through the assembly (determines temperature at which the surface or adjacent materials on the side of the assembly not exposed to the heat source will combust).
  2. Hose Stream test. Uses high pressure hose stream to simulate how well the assembly stands up to an impact from falling debris and cooling and eroding effects of water.
32
Q

Which test is described below?

overall the test evaluates an assembly’s ability to prevent the passage of fire, heat and hot gases for a given amount of time. Ratings are 1, 2, 3, and 4 hours. Doors and other openings can also be given 20, 30 and 45 minute ratings.

33
Q

34
Q

Willa

A

NFPA 257, fire tests of window assemblies, fire and hose stream test, establishes time endurance rating
endurance of glazing for 45 minutes to flame and heat transfer

(for fire-resistance glazing, refer to E119)
