Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONThis guide provides a means for ensuring comparability of findings among different researchersconducting fire-resi

3、stance experiments employing innovative and creative variations to standard testmethods. This guide is intended to bring uniformity and consistency to tests and reports coveringfire-resistance research that is generally conducted as a variation of Test Methods E119. Its provisionsare voluntary and u

4、sers are free to pick and choose from the provisions herein provided. Theoverriding goal is to make it possible to begin to provide data that ultimately can be used in fire safetyengineering and fire-resistance modeling as those fields evolve. When the purpose of the research isto study the effect o

16、ticular fire-resistance tested specimens tested usingconditions different than those addressed by Test MethodsE119.4.2 Data derived from fire tests conducted and reportedunder this guide are useful for general fire research and aspotential input data for use in fire models.4.3 It is necessary that u

17、sers of this guide have knowledgeand understanding of the provisions of Test Methods E119,including those pertaining to conditions of acceptance in orderto understand how the alternative test conditions relate to thosespecified in Test Methods E119.4.4 Users of this guide should be aware that tests

18、conductedusing exposure conditions different than those specified in TestMethods E119 do not provide or generate fire resistance ratingssuitable for determining compliance with code or regulatoryrequirements.4.4.1 In Test Methods E119, standard test specimens aresubjected to specific exposure condit

19、ions. Substitution ofdifferent exposure conditions can change the measured fire-test-response characteristics of a test specimen. Therefore, thedata are valid for only the alternative exposure conditions used.5. General Principles5.1 Except as specifically modified herein, fire-resistancetests shoul

20、d be conducted using the test furnaces, exposureconditions, test specimens, instrumentation, and acceptancecriteria set forth in Test Methods E119.5.2 Although it is possible to vary many variables at onetime, and it may be desirable to do so when evaluating theresponse of a specimen to specific des

21、ign fire conditions, it isusually desirable to vary only one parameter at a time whencomparing results from two or more tests or when evaluatingthe effect on fire resistance of changing a specific variable.5.3 LimitationsThe test data is valid for only the specimenand parameters used in the test.6.
