NFPA 268: Standard Test Method for Determining Ignitibility of Exterior Wall Assemblies Using a Radiant Heat Energy Source, 2012 Edition

Accurately assess fire risk by testing exterior wall assemblies according to the methodology presented in the 2012 NFPA 268.

Revised to include updated references, the 2012 NFPA 268: Standard Test Method for Determining Ignitibility of Exterior Wall Assemblies Using a Radiant Heat Energy Source describes a method to determine the propensity of ignition of exterior wall assemblies from exposure to 12.5 kW /m2 radiant heat in the presence of a pilot ignition source.

From instrumentation and documentation to safety precautions and calibration, this document provides testing laboratories and manufacturers with comprehensive testing guidance. (Softbound, Approx. 17 pp., 2012)
