13 12 of 37 11/28/2016 9:30 AM Second Revision No. 3-NFPA [ Section No ] The requirements for roof covering assemblies shall be according to through Only listed roof covering coverings tested and rated as Class A in accordance with ASTM E108, Standard Test Methods for Fire Tests of Roof Coverings, or an equivalent, shall be used. or UL 790, Standard for Standard Test Methods for Fire Tests of Roof Coverings, shall be used The roof covering shall be tested with all of the assembly components representing the as-built condition in service Any panel products in addition to the structural deck incorporated to improve the fire-resistance performance of the assembly in the test shall be tested with a between-panel joint in the tested assembly The between-panel joint shall be located in vertical alignment with the appropriate burning brand The between-panel joint shall be located no further than 6 in. (150 mm) from the between-panel joint of the wood-based sheathing material The specific class shall be consistent with the wildland fire hazard assessment as determined by the AHJ. Submitter Information Verification Submitter Full Name: Thomas McGowan Organization: National Fire Protection Assoc Street Address: City: State: Zip: Submittal Date: Thu Sep 29 11:39:42 EDT 2016 Committee Statement Committee Statement: The fire test for roofing materials is ASTM E108 or its equivalent UL 790. It is imperative that roof coverings in wildland areas must be Class A. Also, stating that a roof covering must be tested does not ensure adequate fire performance as it could be tested and burn vigorously and still comply with the requirements of having been tested. Note that all roof covering systems used in wildland areas are considered the most serious means for penetration of fires from other areas and, thus, a Class A roofing is essential The revision of fire resistance to fire performance is associated with the fact that ASTM E108 is not a fire resistance test (like ASTM E119) but a reaction to fire test that assesses how a roof covering behaves and not its fire resistance.

There shall be no flaming ignition during the Integrity Test portion of the Flame Intrusion Test. The maximum temperature of the unexposed side of the vent shall not exceed 662 F (350 C). Submitter Information Verification Submitter Full Name: Thomas McGowan Organization: National Fire Protection Assoc Street Address: City: State: Zip: Submittal Date: Thu Sep 29 12:33:05 EDT 2016 Committee Statement Committee Statement: Response Message: ASTM E2886 does not contain pass/fail criteria. It is simply a test method which describes what is being tested, how it is to be tested and what the measurements obtained are. Stating that the materials shall be tested to this test provides no guarantee of fire performance. The materials being tested, produce enormous heat release or flame spread and allow flame penetration and still comply with the requirement of having been tested. The test cannot be "complied with". The revised wording improves the requirements and ensures some level of fire performance. Additionally, specificity to testing for complying with ASTM E 2886 were included.

In contrast, ASTM E2768 and the tests for noncombustibility or for fire-retardant treated wood contain pass fail criteria and stating that a material must comply with them ensures a level of fire performance.
