- Abstract
- Some of the recent work done at NIST in the area of validating reduced-scale toxicity test methods against full-scale room fire data is reviewed. The agreements and disagreements obtained thus far are summarized. The current NIST research program for systematizing the validation process itself is also reviewed.
