- Abstract
- This report describes the testing and analysis of smoke leakage through fire doors, fire dampers, and fire stops while verifying their fire endurance meets International Maritime Organization (IMO) requirements for Class A. The report includes descriptions of the test procedures followed, the assemblies tested, and the results obtained. The purpose of this project was to develop data that the United States Coast Guard could use when addressing a regulatory discontinuity in the fire test requirements for Class A divisions.
