28、ficance and Use4.1 This specification is for FRP gratings used in machinery spaces, cargo areas, and on-deck areas but not withinaccommodation, service, control spaces, and areas where smoke and toxicity is a concern. The test requirements and criteria forFRPgratings have been developed based on the

29、 expected environmental conditions, intended use, and fire hazard the gratings couldbe exposed to in conjunction with requirements for means of escape and fire brigade access to the area where the FRP gratingswill be located. The structural fire integrity test requirements have been developed based

30、on comparative testing with steel gratingsrated for maximum load of 94 lbf/ft2 (4.5 kN/m2). The structural fire integrity requirements for the specific locations aresummarized in Table 1. The fire test requirements include surface flammability testing and structural fire integrity testing with three

31、levels of structural fire integrity that may be achieved as follows:4.1.1 Level 1 (L1)FRP gratings meeting the L1 performance criteria provide the highest degree of safety and are intended foruse in escape routes or areas in which access for firefighting, emergency operation, or rescue is needed aft

32、er a significant fireexposure that may weaken the gratings. Level 1 gratings may also be used in any areas requiring Levels 2 or 3 gratings.4.1.2 Level 2 (L2)FRPgratings meeting the L2 performance criteria are intended for use in areas in which personnel may needto assemble after the grating has bee

33、n exposed to a fire and are tested to ensure that they will be able to sustain a post-fire structuralloading. Areas in which L2 gratings are specified include temporary safe refuge or lifeboat embarkation stations. Level 2 gratingsmay also be used in any areas requiring Level 3 gratings.4.1.3 Level

34、3 (L3)FRP gratings meeting the L3 performance criteria are intended for use in areas used as egress routes or thatmay require access for firefighting, emergency operations, or rescue during or shortly after exposure to a very limited fire not likelyinvolving flammable liquids.4.1.4 Level 0 (L0)FRP g

35、ratings tested to Test Method E84 with a flame spread index 20 and a smoke developed index of450. L0 FRP gratings have no level of fire integrity. L0 gratings are used for personnel walkways, catwalks, ladders, platforms,or access areas in cargo holds and tanks.4.2 These test methods in this specifi

36、cation do not provide the following:4.2.1 Full information as to the performance of the FRPgrating with materials, construction, dimensions, coatings, and so forth,other than tested.4.3 In these test methods, the test specimens are subjected to one or more specific tests under laboratory conditions.

37、 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 laboratory tests are valid only for thetest conditions described in these

38、 test methods.4.4 The fire-resistance test methods specified herein require test specimens to be exposed to a standard fire that is controlledto achieve specified temperatures throughout a specified time period or heat exposure. These are followed by the application ofspecified loads. These test met

39、hods provide a relative measure of performance under the specified test conditions. The fire exposureis not representative of all fire conditions. Variation from the test conditions or test specimen construction, such as size, materials,method of assembly, and so forth, may affect the fire-test resp

40、onse. For these reasons, evaluation of such variations may be requiredfor application to construction in the field. However, variations in the required test exposure conditions are considered outside thescope of this specification.5. Sampling5.1 Sampling methods shall be as required to provide reaso

41、nable assurance that the test samples are truly representative of thestandard manufactured product. When required, test specimens of products shall be sampled at the manufacturing facility bypersonnel representing an accredited testing laboratory, accredited inspection agency, or accredited certific
