Fire Tests of Wood-Framed Walls and Partitions with Asbestos-Cement Facings
Three walls and four partitions with asbestos-cement facings on wood frames were subjected to fire-endurance tests and one wall and three partitions to fire and hose-stream tests. The partitions had asbestos-cement sheet facings on both sides over differing internal constructions. The edges of the studs of some of the partitions were lined with asbestos paper or gypsum-board strips. One partition had no insulation, four had mineral-wool batt fill between the studs; two had gypsum-board sheathing underlying the asbestos-cement sheet facings. The walls had matched diagonal sheathing, asphalt-saturated asbestos felt, and asbestos-cement sheets or asbestos-cement insulated sheathing. Three walls had mineral-wool batt insulation between the studs.
