✦ Synopsis


Until the 1960s ASTM El36 and CAN/ULC-S114 test methods were adequate for determination of noncombustibility in materials being used to construct most buildings. However, since then there has been a very large increase in the use of products that are considered safe for construction of buildings required to be noncombustible but which are classified as combustible by these simple pass/fail tests. Therefore, Forintek Canada Corp. have developed an approach to define the combustibility of these new materials, based upon their release of heat when tested using the ASTM El354 cone calorimeter.
