TR9 Design of light timber framed walls and floors for fire resistance (1991)

Product Description

Technical Recommendation 9 describes two extrapolation methods that apply to the design of light timber framed walls and floor respectively.

Using the results from a floor or wall prototype test, these methods enable designers to produce a wall or floor having at least the same structural fire resistance as the original prototype. These methods cannot be used to increase the fire resistance of tested designs.
