Abstract
In his description of the functions and activities of the Programmatic Center for Fire Research at NBS, Mr. winger stated that an upholstery standard is being written and scheduled for delivery to the Consumer Product Safety Commission by October 1, 1974. After the Commission receives the proposed standard, he believes they will act rapidly to establish the standard in this area. Another priority project is the radiant panel carpet test, which was said to correlate very well with actual corridor fire tests.
