Metal Roof Deck Panels

Metal Sales Manufacturing Corporation has obtained fire resistance ratings for various products

conducted according to test criteria set forth by 'Underwriters Laboratories' "Standard Fire Tests

of Building Construction and Material" (ANSI/UL 263). This test procedure is identical to ASTM

E-119 and NFPA 251.

The fire resistance rating is for the total assembly and not just the external metal panel. Ratings

are expressed in hours and vary depending upon the assemblies.

In general, the test criteria is to evaluate the assembly's ability to continue to support the super-

imposed loads and resist the passage of flame, high temperatures, or hot gases which will ignite

combustible materials. The test assemblies are identified by an alpha-numeric design number.

For detail information on specific assemblies and hourly ratings see UL Fire Resistance Direc-

tory.
