BS 476

The document lists various parts of the BS 476 fire testing standard which provide methods for testing the fire resistance and reaction properties of various building materials and structures. The parts listed relate to non-combustibility testing, surface spread of flame testing, heat emission testing, ignition testing, heat release rate testing, and methods for determining the fire resistance of load-bearing elements, non-load-bearing elements, components, ventilation ducts, and measuring smoke penetration through doors.
