- Abstract
- Fire-endurace and hose-stream tests of a 6-in thick lightweight concrete and foamglass spandrel wall construction of a sandwich type were made on February 10, 1950. They were made as a joint research project in cooperation with the Pittsburgh Corning Corporation, Pittsburgh, PA, as requested by the Housing and Home Finance Agency and the Office of Technical Services, Department of Commerce, to obtain information to be used as a basis in establishing a fire-resistance rating for this newly developed construction.
