This document provides guidance for fire safety engineering that is applicable for fires in enclosed spaces. It is intended to be used in conjunction with models for analysis of the initiation and development of fire, fire spread, impact of heat, radiation, and limited visibility, smoke formation and movement, chemical species generation, transport and decay, and people movement, as well as fire detection and suppression, given in the normative references in clause 2. This document is intended to be used only within this context. This document establishes procedures to evaluate the effects of life-threatening components from fire environments in terms of the probability of compromised tenability of a targeted human population at accumulated time intervals. It makes possible the estimation of the time at which people can experience compromised tenability due to smoke, heat and toxic fire effluent. The most critical hazard is that which causes compromised tenability at the earliest time. The time-dependent production of smoke and toxic fire effluent and the thermal environment of a fire are determined by the rate of fire growth, the yields of the various fire gases produced from the involved fuels, the decay characteristics of those fire gases and the ventilation pattern (see A.1). Once these are determined, the methodology presented in this International Document can be used for the estimation of the time at which individuals can be expected to experience compromised tenability. This document establishes procedures to evaluate the life-threatening components from fire environments in terms of the probability of a targeted human population at accumulated time intervals. It makes possible the estimation of the time at which people in enclosed spaces can experience compromised tenability (see A.2). It enables an estimation of compromised tenability for each predicted Cxt (Concentration x time) of components from fire environments. In addition, the time to untenability due to the impact of heat and of smoke (visibility) needs to be considered. The impact leading to attain compromised tenability at FED = 1 earliest is considered the most critical. The non-lethal threshold-based derivation of the occurrence of compromised tenability also protects from post-exposure mortality. Details for assessing the impact of heat and smoke will be given in ISO 13571-5. This method is intended to assess the escape capability of people in an environment, where generally adult and not handicapped people are expected, as for example in industrial and working surroundings. In addition, susceptible people are covered in this document based on the already included adjustment factors explained below. For the escape capability of hyper-susceptible people, no meaningful additional assessment factors can be defined, but this document can be applied in a meaningful way for places where it can be assumed that hyper-susceptible or helpless people will always get assistance for escape, like in child care units or hospitals. This document covers all fire stages including smouldering fires or other scenarios where high emissions of CO2 can be expected, as CO2 is considered as a toxicant per se for higher concentrations. Recent fire tests have shown that in some fire scenarios CO2 can be found in relevant concentrations [19-21] and has to be considered as a toxicant per se. For applying this document the basic information given in ISO 13344, and in ISO 19706 also is relevant.[58,59]

This document describes test methods and methods for classification of wood and wood-based products for which a stage in the production process results in an improvement of the reaction-to-fire classification in accordance with EN 13501-1 for use in interior and exterior situations (use classes 1, 2, and 3 as defined in EN 335:2013). NOTE The classes of this document are not performance classes and do not give guidance for how long the reaction to fire classification of wood or wood-based product will last. This document applies to - wood and wood-based products (specific wood species, wood treated with preservatives and modified wood, for example thermally and chemically modified wood) that have been treated with fire-retardant chemical(s) applied either by a penetrating process or by a superficial process, such as with a film forming fire-retardant coating. - wood-based products that incorporate fire retardant chemical(s) as part of the production process. This document also covers fire-retardant wood and wood-based products that have a non-fire-retardant coating. Mechanical properties, aesthetic properties, dimensional stability properties, service life and biological durability of fire-retardant wood and wood-based products are not covered by this document. NOTE 2 This document is relevant for, but not limited to, products covered by these products standards: EN 13986, EN 14081-1, EN14374, EN 14915 and EN 16351. NOTE 3 EAD 350865-00-1106 covers fire retardant products (coating) applied in situ.

This document provides product category rules (PCR) for Type III environmental declarations for rooflights and roof hatches to be used on upstands in flat and slightly inclined roofs. This document complements the core rules for the product category of construction products as defined in [1]. This document is used in conjunction with [1] and does not replace it. The core PCR: — defines the parameters to be declared and the way in which they are collected and reported; — describes which stages of a product’s life cycle are considered in the EPD and which processes; are to be included in the life cycle stages; — defines rules for the development of scenarios; — includes the rules for calculating the Life Cycle Inventory and the Life Cycle Impact Assessment underlying the EPD; including the specification of the data quality to be applied; — includes the rules for reporting the predetermined, environmental and health information that is not covered by Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) for the product, construction process(es) and construction service(s), as relevant; — defines the conditions under which construction products can be compared based on the information provided by EPD. For the EPD of construction services the same rules and requirements apply as for the EPD of construction products. This document applies to rooflights and roof hatches with upstands as well as rooflights and roof hatches supplied without an upstand, intended for use on upstands. The rooflights and roof hatches may be individual or continuous types. The main purpose of rooflights is to transmit daylight into the building. Roof hatches provide mainly access to the roof. But beside their primary purposes these products can be used for different additional functions e.g. — natural ventilation; — fire compartmentation and smoke control; — emergency exit; — natural smoke and heat exhaust ventilation in accordance with [2]. So the functions and the products are not fixed linked to each other. Construction products covered by these complementary product category rules are: — individual rooflights and individual rooflights with upstands; — roof hatches; — continuous rooflights and continuous rooflights with upstands.
