3、nce in securingconstructions that are safe, and that are not a menace to neighboring construction nor to the public.Recognition of this is registered in the codes of many authorities, municipal and other agencies. Manytypes of enclosure materials are used to protect grease ducts. Normally, these enc
4、losure materials areeither applied to grease ducts in the field or are fabricated as part of the grease duct when shipped fromthe factory. Evaluating enclosure materials used to protect a grease duct from fire is an aid forpredicting their fire performance and promotes uniformity in requirements of
5、various authorities. Todo this it is necessary that the fire-endurance properties of enclosure materials be measured andspecified according to a common standard expressed in terms that are applicable alike to a wide varietyof materials, situations, and conditions of exposure.1. ScopeNOTE 1The majori
6、ty of this standard is based on the Model Building Code Evaluation Service2 Acceptance Criteria titled ACCEPTANCE CRITERIAFOR GREASE DUCT ENCLOSURE ASSEMBLIES, AC101, which was created in 1994. Numerous design listings and labeled materials exist based onthe provisions of this standard.1.1 These tes
7、t methods evaluate the enclosure materials and the grease duct enclosure systems using the following test methods:noncombustibility, fire resistance, durability, internal fire, and fire-engulfment with a through-penetration fire stop.1.2 These test methods prescribe a standardized fire exposure for
8、comparing the test results of the enclosure materials and greaseduct enclosure systems. The results of these tests are one factor in assessing predicted fire performance of grease duct enclosuresystems. Using these test results to predict the performance of actual grease duct enclosure systems requi

The fire-engulfment test also tests the fastening methods used to secure the enclosure material to thegrease duct and the supporting system. The fire-engulfment test also provid
33、es a means to test a through-penetration fire stop todetermine its compatibility with the grease duct enclosure system.5. Significance and Use5.1 These test methods are intended to evaluate the ability of the grease duct enclosure system to do the following:5.1.1 Resist the effects of a standardized
34、 fire exposure,5.1.2 Retain its integrity, or5.1.3 Exhibit both properties dependent upon the type of test assembly involved during a predetermined test exposure.5.2 These test methods provide for the following measurements and evaluations where applicable:5.2.1 Capability of the enclosure material
35、to resist flaming (combustion) when exposed to 1382F (750C).5.2.2 Loadbearing ability of the tested support system and fastening system to carry the load of the grease duct enclosure systemduring a standardized fire-engulfment test.5.2.3 Ability of a fire stop to meet the requirements of Test Method

38、ndardized cyclicthermal transmissions.5.3 These test methods do not provide the following:5.3.1 Full information as to performance of the enclosure material or the grease duct enclosure system constructed withcomponents, densities, or dimensions other than those tested.5.3.2 Evaluation of the degree
39、 by which the enclosure material or grease duct enclosure system contributes to the fire hazardby generation of smoke, toxic gases, or other products of combustion.5.3.3 Measurement of the degree of control or limitation of the passage of smoke or products of combustion through the greaseduct enclos
40、ure system.5.3.4 Measurement of flame spread over the surface of the grease duct enclosure system.NOTE 2The information in 5.3.2 5.3.4 is usually determined by other suitable test methods. For example, 5.3.4 is typically determined using TestMethod E84.5.4 In these test methods, the test specimens a
41、re subjected to one or more specific tests under laboratory conditions. Whendifferent test conditions are substituted or the end-use conditions are changed, it is not always possible by, or from, these testmethods to predict changes to the characteristics measured. Therefore, the results of these la
42、boratory tests are valid only for theexposure conditions described in these test methods.5.5 Various test methods in these test methods require a test specimen to be exposed to a standard fire that is controlled toachieve specified temperatures throughout a specified time period. The fire-engulfment
43、 and vertical fire resistance tests arefollowed by the application of a standardized hose stream test. These test methods provide a relative measure of thefire-test-response of comparable enclosure materials and grease duct enclosure systems under these exposure conditions. The fireexposure is not r
44、epresentative of all fire conditions because conditions vary with changes in the amount, nature and distributionof fire loading, ventilation, compartment size and configuration, and heat sink characteristics of the compartment. Variation fromthe test conditions or test specimen construction, such as
45、 size, materials, method of assembly, also affects the fire-test-response.For these reasons, evaluation of the variation is required for application to construction in the field.6.
