... Mineral fiber compositions for spray-applied fire resistive coatings to buildings are factory mixed products consisting of manufactured inorganic fibers and proprietary binders. Air setting, hydraulic setting, and ceramic binders are used singly or in varying combinations and quantities...

... Economics and short-time factors have forced many manufacturers of fire resistive coatings to use small-scale fire tests in accordance with ASTM Standard Method of Fire Tests of Building Construction and Materials (E 119-81) time-temperature curve. The difference between small-size and full-size...

... hydrocarbon pool-fire on fire resistive coatings and poured-in-place concrete versus the standard ASTM E 119-76 time/temperature criteria. Specimens of similar construction were tested in both environments. A hose stream, similar to that used in petrochemical industry fire-fighting practices, was used...

... The use of fire resistive coatings in wood and steel construction is reviewed by the author, who visited the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) in July 1981, as a member of the US-USSR Panel on Fire Protection. Included are English translations of two Soviet standards (GOST) for Fire...

... The preparation of steel substrates to receive fire resistive coatings has not been formally investigated. The types and conditions of steel surfaces are analyzed from a climatic, physical, and chemical point of view, and recommendations for each condition are made. fire resistive coatings...
