This report presents test results of Flame Spread and Smoke Developed Value per ASTM E-84-19b.
This report presents test results of Flame Spread and Smoke Developed Value per ASTM E-84-19b. The report also includes Material Identification, Method of Preparation, Mounting and Conditioning of the specimens.
The tests were performed in accordance with the specifications set forth in ASTM E-84-19b, Standard Test Method for Surface Burning Characteristics of Building Materials, both as to equipment and test procedures. This test procedure is similar to UL-723, ANSI NO. 2.5, NFPA No. 255 and UBC 42-1. The test is applicable to exposed interior surfaces such as walls and ceilings.
The test results cover two parameters: Flame Spread and Smoke Developed Values during the 10-minute fire exposure. Inorganic cement board and red oak flooring are used as comparative standards and their responses are assigned arbitrary values of 0 and 100 respectively.
Preparation And Conditioning:
The test sample identified as ROYSONS CORPORATION — NOLAR NON-VINYL WALLCOVERING - (ADHERED) was prepared by adhering the material to 5/8” Standard IC board, glued using FR - Shur-Stik wallcovering adhesive. This method of sample preparation is described in ASTM E2404-15A, standard practice.
Test Procedure: Adhered
The tunnel was thoroughly pre-heated by burning natural gas. When the brick temperature, sensed by a floor thermocouple, had reached the prescribed 105 Fahrenheit +/- 5 Fahrenheit level, the sample was inserted in the tunnel and a test conducted in accordance with the standard ASTM E-84-19b procedures.
The operation of the tunnel was checked by performing a 10-minute test with inorganic board of the day of the test.
Test Results:
The test results calculated in accordance with ASTM E-84-19 for Flame Spread and Smoke Developed Values are as follows:
Test Specimen: ROYSONS CORPORATION — NOLAR NON-VINYL WALLCOVERING (ADHERED)
Flame Spread Index = 10
Smoke Developed Value = 90
Observations:
Rating: Class A
The National Fire Protection Association Life Safety Code 101, Section 6-5.3, “Interior Wall and Ceiling Finish Classification”, has a means of classifying materials with respect to Flame Spread and Smoke Developed when tested in accordance with NFPA 255, “Method of Test of Surface Burning Characteristics of Building Materials”, (ASTM E-84)
The classifications are as follows:
Class A Interior Wall & Ceiling Finish: Flame Spread- 0-25
Smoke Developed- 0-450
Class A Interior Wall & Ceiling Finish: Flame Spread- 0-25
Smoke Developed- 0-450
Results:
- This test sample meets the A.S.T.M. E-84-19 Standard.
- This test sample meets the N.F.P.A. LIFE SAFETY CODE 101.
