Scope:

Please note the following NOI has been withdrawn on 2019-02-12 as requested by the responsible SDO.

This method assesses the resistance of textile fabrics to burning when a flame is applied to the lower edge.  Because the procedure creates conditions favourable to combustion, the test is severe one relative to some others in the CAN/CGSB-4.2 No. 27 series.

Project need:

New edition as to meet current industry practices.
