New Test Method for Determining Compatibility of Firestop Materials on Piping

The test method covers testing procedures for materials used in firestopping to determine compatibility with various types of pipes. Tests conducted in accordance with this test method record compatibility of a specific firestop material on a specific type of pipe (ie CPVC pipe)Keywords
Firestop; Penetration; PipeRationale
There are currently no standardized consensus test methodologies for determining compatibility of firestop materials on piping. A consensus ASTM standard document will provide a pathway for certification by testing laboratories. The new standard will be used by firestop manufacturers and testing laboratories for understanding pipe compatibility and gaining certification.
