BS 476-22 Fire Tests on Building Materials and Structures, Part 22: Fire Resistance of Non-Load Bearing Elements of the Structure

EUROLAB laboratory provides testing and compliance services within the scope of BS 476-22 standard. This section of BS 476 describes procedures for determining the fire resistance of non-load-bearing elements of building construction when subjected to the heating and pressure conditions specified in BS 476-20.

BS 476-22 Fire Tests on Building Materials and Structures, Part 22: Fire Resistance of Non-Load Bearing Elements of the Structure

This part applies to vertical partitions, fully insulated, partially insulated and non-insulated vertical door sets and louver assemblies (excluding fire dampers incorporated in ducts), ceiling membranes and glazed elements. The described methods are suitable for normal combinations of these elements.

Methods for determining the fire resistance of load-bearing elements with a finite fire resistance and components that contribute to the fire resistance of a structure are described in BS 476-21 and 23, respectively. General changes to the methods described in this Chapter compared to BS 476-8 are described in the preface to BS 476-20.
