1.1 本指南包含的概念为评估火灾测试报告对建筑法规中使用的材料或产品的火灾测试反应的持续适用性提供了指导。 1.2 本指南介绍了火灾测试反应火灾测试报告的发起人和用户如何评估现有报告是否继续适用: 1. 目前提供使用的材料或产品，以及 2. 参考不同版本测试标准的建筑法规。本指南旨在确定可能导致火灾试验报告对火灾试验的反应的条件，该报告在编制时是有效的，不再是关于材料或产品的决策所依据的适当工具。 1.3 本指南的应用取决于防火试验标准的技术变化，这些变化可能会影响试验结果，从而影响材料或产品的分类。 当防火试验标准包括重大历史技术变化的明确文件时，将更好地促进本指南的应用。 1.4 本指南不涉及与耐火试验相关的耐火试验报告。 1.5 火灾测试报告有效性的确定不在本指南的范围内。 1.6 组件的防火试验报告或证书不在本指南的范围内。 1.7 由认证机构列出、标记和检查的材料或产品的防火试验报告或证书不在本指南的范围内。 注1: 认证机构有自己的标准来评估防火测试报告的持续适用性。 1.8 本指南中包含的一些概念可能不适用于所有的防火试验报告，因为它们是所进行的防火试验类型和所评估的材料或产品类型的函数。 1.9 该消防标准不能用于提供定量措施。 1.10 本国际标准是根据世界贸易组织技术性贸易壁垒委员会发布的《关于制定国际标准、指南和建议的原则的决定》中确立的国际公认的标准化原则制定的。 ====意义和用途====== 5.1 本指南确定了评估建筑法规中使用的火灾试验报告对火灾试验反应的持续适用性的概念。它为根据火灾响应测试标准（如ASTM、UL或NFPA的标准）开发的火灾响应测试报告的用户和请求者提供了指导，以确定火灾测试报告是否继续适用于监管用途。 本指南不适用于耐火性测试报告。 5.2 本指南假设测试实验室生成的防火测试报告代表了在测试特定材料或产品时，根据报告中确定的防火测试标准，材料或产品的性能。 5.3 本指南并非旨在帮助确定评估报告中列出、标记或给出的材料或产品的持续适用性。 5.4 本指南并非旨在帮助确定测试实验室是否根据标准测试协议进行了火灾测试报告中的测试参考。 5.5 本指南并非旨在帮助确定发布火灾测试报告的火灾测试实验室是否满足测试和校准方法能力的要求。 4. 5.6 本指南并非旨在帮助确定根据指南制定的测量不确定度的火灾试验报告的适用性 E2536 . 5.7 不要将只有编辑变更的新版（如ASTM中用“epsilon或”表示）或有重新批准日期的新版视为包含技术变更的新版。

1.1 This guide contains concepts that provide guidance for assessing the continued applicability of fire test reports for reaction to fire tests on materials or products used in building regulation. 1.2 This guide describes how sponsors and users of fire test reports for reaction to fire tests can assess whether existing reports continue being applicable: (1) to the materials or products currently being offered for use, and (2) to a building regulation that references a different edition of the test standard. This guide is intended to identify conditions that may cause a fire test report for reaction to fire tests, which was valid when prepared, to no longer be an appropriate tool upon which decisions about the materials or products can be based. 1.3 Application of this guide is dependent on the technical changes in the fire test standard that could impact the test results and thus the classification of the material or product. Application of this guide will be better facilitated when fire test standards include explicit documentation of significant historical technical changes. 1.4 This guide does not address fire test reports relating to fire resistance tests. 1.5 The determination of the validity of a fire test report is outside the scope of this guide. 1.6 Fire test reports or certificates on assemblies are outside the scope of this guide. 1.7 Fire test reports or certificates on materials or products listed, labeled and inspected by a certification agency are outside the scope of this guide. Note 1: Certification agencies have their own criteria to assess the continued applicability of fire test reports. 1.8 Some concepts contained in this guide may not be applicable to all fire test reports since they are a function of the type of fire test conducted and of the type of material or product assessed. 1.9 This fire standard cannot be used to provide quantitative measures. 1.10 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee. ====== Significance And Use ====== 5.1 This guide identifies concepts for assessing the continued applicability of fire test reports for reaction to fire tests as used in building regulation. It provides guidance to users and requesters of test reports for reaction to fire tests, developed in accordance with the fire response test standards, such as those from ASTM, UL, or NFPA, to determine the continued applicability of a fire test report for regulatory use. This guide is not applicable to test reports for fire resistance. 5.2 This guide assumes that a fire test report generated by a test laboratory represents the performance of the material or product in accordance with the fire test standard identified in the report at the time a specific material or product was tested. 5.3 This guide is not designed to assist in determining the continued applicability of a material or product that is listed, labeled, or given in an evaluation report. 5.4 This guide is not designed to assist in determining whether a test laboratory conducted the test reference in the fire test report in accordance with a standard test protocol. 5.5 This guide is not designed to assist in determining whether the fire test laboratory issuing a fire test report met the requirements of competence of testing and calibration methods. 4 5.6 This guide is not designed to assist in determining the applicability of a fire test report with respect to the measurement uncertainty developed in accordance with Guide E2536 . 5.7 Do not consider issuance of a new edition with only editorial changes (as notated in ASTM by “epsilon or ɛ” ) or with a reapproval date, as a new edition containing a technical change.
