Lab Testing Machine NFPA285 Fire Propagation Testing Apparatus for Exterior Wall Assemblies

NFPA 285 Exterior Wall Assemblies Fire Propagation Testing Apparatus

Scope:

This standard provides a test method for determining the fire propagation characteristics of exterior non-load-bearing wall assemblies and panels used as components of curain wall assemblies, constructed using combustilble materials or that incomorte combusibie components, that ae imended to be installed on buildings required to have exterior walls of noncombustible construction.

The fire propagation characteristics are determined for post-flashover fires of interior origin.
