- Abstract
- In January 1990 an expert group was set up by DP2 of TC2, CEC to define the research and development work needed to be undertaken within the community to achieve a robuts solution with respect to reaction-to-fire material classification. The expert group delivered in December 1990 its proposal for a 5-year research and development program. But a system of harmonised European fire test methods and classification system cannot await this period of development, so the search for an "interim solution" is on. The objective of this paper is to inform that very recent research (during the last year) at Lund University and other places has demonstrated thate there exist simplified approaches, using the test developed within ISO TC92/SC1, for an interim solution.
