ASTM E84

ASTM E84 is a standard test method used to measure the fire safety of building materials, specifically how they contribute to flame spread and smoke development. During the test, a sample material is exposed to a controlled flame in a specific setup, and its burning characteristics are observed. The results help determine how easily a material can catch fire and how much smoke it produces, providing valuable information for architects, builders, and safety regulators to ensure safer buildings. This standard is critical for assessing materials used in construction and interior design.
