2、of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.INTRODUCTIONCharacteristically fire spreads fr
3、om one building compartment to another by the collapse of abarrier, or by openings through which flames or hot gases may pass, or by transfer of sufficient heatto ignite combustibles beyond the barrier. Test Methods E119 describe the method to be used tomeasure the fire-resistive performance of thes
4、e barriers.However, various techniques of providing for the distribution of services within a structuresometimes require that openings be made in fire-resistive walls and floors to allow the passage of suchpenetrating items as cables, conduits, pipes, trays, and ducts through to the adjacent compart
5、ment.Fire-stop material is installed into these openings to resist the spread of fire.The performance of through-penetration firestops should be measured and specified according to acommon standard that describes the method of fire exposure and rating criteria.1. Scope1.1 This test method is applica
6、ble to firestop systems ofvarious materials and construction. Firestop systems are in-tended for use in openings in fire-resistive walls and floors thatare evaluated in accordance with Test Methods E119.1.2 Tests conducted in conformance with this test methodrecord firestop system performance during
7、 the test exposure;but such tests shall not be construed to determine suitability ofthe firestop system for use after test exposure.1.3 This test method also measures the resistance of firestopsystems to an external force stimulated by a hose stream.However, this test method shall not be construed a
8、s determin-ing the performance of the firestop system during actual fireconditions when subjected to forces such as failure of cablesupport systems and falling debris.1.4 The intent of this test method is to develop data to assistothers in determining the suitability of the firestops for usewhere fi
9、re resistance is required.1.5 This test method does not apply to membrane penetra-tions of a floor-ceiling assembly or roof-ceiling assembly thatare tested as part of the assembly in accordance with TestMethods E119.1.6 This test method does not apply to membrane penetra-tions of load-bearing walls.

18、tance rated assembly.3.2.1.1 DiscussionThe materials and devices used to sealthe opening around penetrating items are sometimes referred toas “firestops.” Note that it is not “firestops” that are tested bythis standard, but rather “firestop systems.” Due to the complexinteraction during a fire betwe

Summary of Test Method4.1 This method of testing through-penetration firestopsystems expose
23、s firestop systems to a standard temperature-time fire, and to a subsequent application of a hose stream.4.2 Ratings are established on the basis of the period ofresistance to the fire exposure, prior to the first development ofthrough openings, flaming on the unexposed surface, limitingthermal tran
24、smission criterion, and acceptable performanceunder application of a hose stream.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method is used to determine the performanceof a firestop system with respect to exposure to a standardtime-temperature fire test and a hose stream test. The perfor-mance of a firesto
25、p system is dependent upon the specificassembly of materials tested including the number, type, andsize of penetrations and the floors or walls in which it isinstalled.5.2 Two ratings are established for each firestop system. AnF rating is based upon flame occurrence on the unexposedsurface, while t
26、he T rating is based upon the temperature rise aswell as flame occurrence on the unexposed side of the firestopsystem. These ratings, together with detailed performance datasuch as the location of through-openings and temperatures ofpenetrating items are intended to be one factor in assessingperform
27、ance of firestop systems.6. Control of Fire Tests6.1 Time-Temperature CurveThe fire environment withinthe furnace shall be in accordance with the standard time-temperature curve shown in Fig. 1. The points on the curve thatdetermine its character are:Ambient at 0 min1000F (538C) at 5 min1300F (704C)

29、and distributed within the testfurnace to show the temperature near all parts of the assembly.Use a minimum of three thermocouples, with not fewer thanfive thermocouples per 100 ft2(9.29 m2) of floor surface, andnot fewer than nine thermocouples per 100 ft2of wall specimensurface.6.2.2 Enclose the t
30、hermocouples in sealed protection tubesof such materials and dimensions that the time constant of theprotected thermocouple assembly lies within the range (seeNOTEFor a closer definition of the temperature-time curve, see AnnexA1.FIG. 1 Temperature-Time CurveE814 102Note 1) from 300 to 400 s. The ex
31、posed length of thepyrometer tube and thermocouple in the furnace chamber shallbe not less than 12 in. (300 mm). Use of other types ofprotection tubes or pyrometers is acceptable provided thattemperature measurements obtained in accordance with Fig. 1are within the limit of accuracy that applies for
32、 furnacetemperature measurements.NOTE 1A typical thermocouple meeting these time-constant require-ments may be fabricated by fusion-welding the twisted ends of No. 18 Band S gage (0.040 in.) (1.02 mm) Chromel-Alumel wires, mounting theleads in porcelain insulators and inserting the assembly so the t
33、hermo-couple bead is 0.50 in. (13 mm) from the sealed end of a standard weight,nominal12-in. iron, steel, or Inconel pipe. (Inconel is a trademark of IncoAlloys, Inc., 3800 Riverside Dr., P.O. Box 1958, Huntington, WV 25720.)The time constant for this and for several other thermocouple assemblieswas
34、 measured in 1976. The time constant may also be calculated fromknowledge of its physical and thermal properties. See Research ReportRR:E05-1001, available from ASTM Headquarters.6.2.3 For floors, place the junction of the thermocouples 12in. (300 mm) away from the exposed face of the assembly. Inth
35、e case of walls, place the thermocouples 6.0 in. (150 mm)away from the exposed face.6.2.4 Read the temperature at intervals not exceeding 5 minduring the first 120 min. Thereafter, the intervals shall notexceed 10 min.6.2.5 The accuracy of the furnace control shall be such thatthe area under the tem
36、perature-time curve, obtained by aver-aging the results from the pyrometer or thermoelectric devicereadings, is within 10 % of the corresponding area under thestandard temperature-time curve shown in Fig. 1 for fire testsof 60 min or less duration; within 7.5 % for those over 60 minand not more than
37、 120 min; and within 5 % for tests exceeding120 min in duration.6.3 Unexposed Surface Temperatures:6.3.1 Measure temperatures on the surface of the materials,devices, or both, that are used to seal the opening in the testassembly.6.3.2 Measure the temperature of the test assembly.6.3.3 Measure tempe

(25 mm) from one through-penetrating item for each type of penetrating itememployed in the field of the materials or devices, or both, that seal t
42、he opening. If the grouping of penetrating items through the test sample prohibits placement of thethermocouple pad, the thermocouple shall not be required.BAt a point at the periphery on the surface of the materials or devices, or both, that seal the opening.CAt a minimum of three points on the sur
43、face of the materials that seal the opening, approximately equidistant from a penetrating item or group of penetrating itemsin the field of the materials that seal the opening and the periphery.DAt one point on any frame that is installed about the perimeter of the opening.EAt one point on the unexp
