Abstract
The Fire Note describes the basis on which the British Standard test is devised and gives tabulated results of tests on a large number of proprietary and non-proprietary constructions. The lists should provide a useful gide to the users when considering roof constructions to comply with the requirements of the Building Regulations. The revised edition contains information on a number of newer materials and products which have become available since 1963.
