Euroclasses
Euroclasses are a European classification system that rates the reaction of building materials to fire. They help determine how quickly a material ignites, how much smoke is produced, and how it contributes to fire spread. The system uses a letter and number code (e.g., A1, B, C) where A1 is non-combustible with no smoke, and lower grades (like D, E, F) indicate higher flammability. This classification informs safety standards in construction, guiding building design to ensure safer structure performance during a fire event.
