Description / Abstract: ISO 834-9:2002 specifies test procedures for determining the fire resistance of non-loadbearing ceiling elements, which possess fire resistance independent of any building element above them, when exposed to heating from below the ceiling. It is applicable to self-supporting ceilings and to ceilings suspended from, or fixed directly to, a supporting construction. It is not applicable to ceilings used as a horizontal fire barrier for the protection of a loadbearing element above, in which case performance is assessed as an integral part of the complete assembly using ISO 834-5.
