Bibliography

Provides a guide to the principles and use of fire test data and other relevant information regarding construction products and their end-use environment, in order that potential fire hazards and/or risks can be assessed. Suggests methods for expression of results and interpretation of data to aid the fire hazard assessment process. The guide is aimed at materials manufacturers and convertors, wholesalers and retailers, designers, specifiers and regulating bodies, and consumer representatives.
