ASTM E84-04
The ASTM E84-04 (25 foot
tunnel) test method for SURFACE BURNING CHARACTERISTICS OF
BUILDING MATERIALS is a method for determining the comparative
surface burning behavior of building materials. The purpose of
the method is to determine the relative burning behavior of the
material by observing the flame spread along the specimen. The
Steiner Tunnel is probably the most widely used fire test
apparatus in North America. It has many different names and test
designations associated with it, and is also used for testing a
wide array of materials.
