Assemblies
One of the most critical issues for architects is ensuring that building design addresses fire-safety issues. This resource lists fire-resistant assemblies using USG products and systems, as well as the related evaluation reports. The results of acoustical tests are also included, where relevant.

Fire Protection
USG is the undisputed leader among building material manufacturers in providing products and systems designed to keep people safe from fire. Fire-safety properties are described in terms of fire resistance, surface-burning characteristics and noncombustibility.
Fire Safety
Building assemblys fire resistance Flame spread Noncombustible material Class A designation
The period of time the assembly will serve as a barrier to the spread of fire and how long the assembly can function structurally after it is exposed to a fire of standard intensity as defined by ASTM E119. Sometimes this is also called the assemblys fire endurance. The measure of a materials relative burning behavior. Both the flame spread and smoke developed are measured in accordance with ASTM E84. A material that will not burn or contribute any appreciable amount of fuel to a fire, as determined through ASTM E136. Refers to material that may ignite but will not sustain a flame. Class A products will not generate excessive visibility-obscuring smoke, an important factor in designing safe egress for building occupants. Class A is not a fire-resistance designation.
Fire-Rated
Fire-resistance ratings have long been used by UL, ASTM and building codes to measure the performance of various constructions for fire containment purposes. As applied to elements of buildings, the fire-resistance rating classifies the ability of an assembly to confine and isolate fire within a zone comprised of fire-resistance rated walls, ceiling and floor assemblies. The ratings relate to fire tests designed to determine how quickly fire can raise the temperature to unacceptable levels. Fire-rated assemblies are tested and certified in their entirety. These designs are identified in the UL Fire Resistance Directory, which is updated yearly and can be referenced at the Underwriters Laboratories website at ul.com. For additional information on USG fire-rated assemblies, CAD, BIM content and specifications, visit USG Design Studio at usgdesignstudio.com.

Selector Overview
The sections listed below correspond to the different types of assemblies in which USG products are tested. Each section is arranged sequentially according to fire ratings, the criterion that most often governs selection. Each entry within a section contains a reference to the source for more information within the Architectural Reference Library binder.

Test Certication
Fire- and sound-tested assemblies listed in this Selector are based on characteristics, properties and performance of materials and systems obtained under controlled test conditions as set forth in the appropriate ASTM Standard in effect at the time of test. These listings are short summaries to serve as a compilation and guide of construction assemblies available in the selection process. For complete information on construction details and components used in these systems, refer to the individual Folder reference. USG Corporation will provide information for published fire, sound and structural data, covering systems designed and constructed according to its published specifications. Tests are conducted on Company products assembled to meet performance requirements of established test procedures specified by various agencies. System performance following any substitution of materials or compromise in assembly design cannot be certified and may result in failure under critical conditions. Sound tests are conducted under controlled laboratory conditions according to ASTM procedures. Comparable field performance depends on building design and careful attention to detailing and workmanship. Certain sound tests, conducted in accordance with ASTM methods, measured sound transmission of 11 frequencies. This data has been retained in this Selector to serve as a guide to the designer. Based on experience, the STC values are very close to those obtained for the assembly under current methods at 16 frequencies. Sound ratings shown for steel-framed partitions apply to systems constructed with 25 gauge steel studs 24" o.c., unless otherwise noted. Heavier gauge studs are more rigid and may not provide the same sound ratings.
Abbreviations
In the Selector, the following abbreviations may be used. Estimated fire ratings are based on an engineering evaluation by qualified professionals.

Metric Conversions
USG Corporation supports the intent of the metric conversion program. USG has manufactured metric-sized products for export for many years on a special-order basis. USG will make every reasonable effort to make metric products available to the federal market on a special-order basis. USG interiors, Inc., is prepared to offer metric sizes in most of its acoustical panel and suspension systems. From United States Gypsum Company, metric width and length Sheetrock gypsum panel products will be available from designated manufacturing plants throughout the United States. Metric length dUrock cement board products will also be available from designated manufacturing plants. Certain minimum-order quantities and service charges may apply, as determined by local market conditions. Bag and pail products, including Sheetrock joint treatment products, spray textures, gypsum plasters and other products carry soft metric designations for size and/or weight. Important: The basic USG product line remains unchangedstandard foot/inch/pound products previously available from USG will still be readily available. The addition of metric length/width products will allow us to supply all job requirements, whether standard or metric. USG Corporation will offer assistance to construction professionals with regard to design, specification and installation issues involving our metric products, just as we always have with our standard products.

Notes (a) Conversion Type: Soft is metric relabeling with no physical change of dimension; hard is a physical change to the metric dimension shown. (b) Conversion factors: inches x 25.4 = mm; feet x 304.8 = mm. Availability: Items above are not stocked in metric lengths or widths. Minimum quantity orders may be required. Leadtime should be determined; service charges may apply. Geographic availability may vary and should be verified for the project location. Lengths: Shown on Sheetrock gypsum panels and steel stud framing for illustration purposes only. Framing Spacing: 16" o.c. converts to 400 mm o.c.; 24" converts to 600 mm o.c.
