A fiber glass reinforced polyester resin wall assembly with mineral wool fill was subjected to a fire endurance test at the National Bureau of Standards. The test method was in accordance with the requirements of ASTM E 119, Fire Tests of Building Construction and Materials. The applied load of 730 pounds per linear foot (plf) was representative of the design and the test results are valid only for walls of similar construction loaded at or below the stress level developed by this loading. The time to failure, which occurred by flame-through of the assembly to the unexposed surface, was 6 minutes: 42 seconds. About 1/2 minute later, the structure was unable to sustain the applied load. Considerable smoke evolved from the test specimen throughout the fire exposure period. (Author)
