Introduction
This standard outlines procedures for assessing the fire reaction of building products. It focuses on the response of materials to fire exposure, excluding flooring products subjected to a single thermal attack from a burning item. The methodology described is designed to evaluate the performance of construction materials under specific fire conditions. The test procedures are structured to provide consistent and repeatable results. The standard specifies the requirements for equipment, test specimens, and the conditions under which the tests should be conducted. It also details the criteria for interpreting test outcomes. The information provided is intended for use by manufacturers, regulators, and testing laboratories to ensure compliance with established fire safety benchmarks.
