Fire resistance tests - Part 7: Loadbearing elements - Walls
This Malaysian Standard specifies a method of testing the fire resistance of load bearing walls. It is applicable to both internal and external walls. The fire resistance of external walls can be determined under internal or external exposure conditions.
The fire resistance performance of load bearing walls is normally evaluated without perforations such as glazing. If it can be demonstrated that the design of the opening is such that load is not transmitted to the perforation, then the perforation need not be tested in the loaded condition.
