BS 8414-2:2020 PDF

Scope: What is BS 8414-2 - Fire performance of external cladding about? BS 8414-2 is part two of the multi-series standard that provides a test method for determining the fire performance characteristics of non-loadbearing external cladding systems when fixed to, and supported by, a structural steel frame and exposed to an external fire under controlled conditions. BS 8414-2 helps you evaluate and improve the fire performance of non-loadbearing external cladding systems fixed to, and supported by, a structural steel frame. NOTE: BS 8414-2 does not apply to non-loadbearing external rainscreen over-cladding systems applied to the face of a building. BS 8414-2 does not test the total configuration of construction incorporating additional windows, doors, ancillary penetrations nor cover exposure to radiant heat from a fire in an adjacent building. Who is BS 8414-2 - Fire performance of external cladding for? BS 8414-2 is necessary for the following :
