This International Standard specifies a test method for measuring the heat-transfer of horizontally mounted flame-resistant textile materials when exposed to a combination of convective and radiant energy.
This test method can be used for any type of sheet material used either as a single layer or in a multilayer construction when all structures or sub-assemblies are made of flame-resistant materials. It is not intended to be used on materials that are not flame resistant.
