AS 1530.2 Methods for fire tests on building materials, components and structures Part 2: Test for flammability of materials

1.1 SCOPE

This method applies to the testing of thin sheet or woven material which is sufficiently pliable to be inserted into the test apparatus by hand without special softening
treatment, so that it may be graded according to a flammability index. The test is unsuitable for materials which melt readily or shrink away from an igniting flame.
