small scale fire tests for hydrocarbon intumescent
Research-Scale Fire Performance Evaluation of a Wood Floor
The purpose of this test was to evaluate the fire endurance characteristics (ability to contain a fire) of the client s floor/ceiling assembly when subjected to a standard fire exposure condition (ASTM E119 standard time- temperature curve). Skip Gosser of Intumescent Technologies constructed the sample and witnessed the testing.
