CASfire offer the test proposal of I-Joist flooring assembly for fire resistance


CASfire has studied the British building regulation on fire safety and other relevant documents, and has done a lot of fire resistance tests and technical research on floor assembly installation process. According to the actual situation in China, CASfire has developed a test scheme to flooring assembly of solid wood joist and I-joist for fire resistance test.   The test scheme is widely supported by the industry and it can be used to fire resistance test to Fire-rated downlight, plasterboard, Audio horn, Thermal insulation materials, Fire shield, etc.
