Interlaboratory Evaluation of ASTM E 84-70 Tunnel Test Applied to Floor Coverings
Results of an interlaboratory evaluation of the ASTM E 84 tunnel test method, involving eleven laboratories and nine materials including four carpets are reported. Data on flame spread, smoke, and fuel contribution were analyzed statistically to determine the reproducibility of the test method. Selected physical characteristics of each tunnel are tabulated and compared relative to specifications in the test method. The causes of higher variability in smoke and fuel contribution measurement between laboratories are not definitely known but may reasonably be attributed to variations in tunnel construction, instrumentation, and operation in different laboratories.
