- Abstract
- Two bulkheads assemblies were subjected to a standard fire test. The two differed only in the density of the asbestos marine boards used. Each served as an effective barrier to flame passage for the full 60 minutes of the test. Excessive temperature rise was reached on the unexposed surface of the 30 lb. per cu. ft. board at 13.9 minutes and on the 36 lb. per cu. ft. board at 14.5 min.
