- Abstract
- Work has been continued on an investigation of the effectiveness of fire-retardant materials sprayed directly on structural steel members. Data on the performance of 1-in. thick coatings of a number of such materials are presented. Similar data on 1/2-in. thick coatings of the materials have been reported previously.
