Standard Specification for Sound-Absorbing Board, Fibrous Glass, Perforated Fibrous Glass Cloth Faced

ABSTRACT
This specification covers fibrous glass sound-absorbing board with a perforated fibrous glass cloth facing for sound reduction in ship spaces with high noise levels. It also measures and describes the response of materials, products, or assemblies to heat and flame under controlled conditions, but does not by itself incorporate all factors required for fire hazard or fire risk assessment of materials, products, or assemblies under actual fire conditions. The sound-absorbing board shall conform to the following performance requirements: density, surface flame spread and smoke generation properties, facing separation, and sound absorption coefficients.
SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers fibrous glass sound-absorbing board with a perforated fibrous glass cloth facing for sound reduction in ship spaces with high noise levels. This specification is primarily for materials used on ships. Additional requirements, testing, and certification are required for use of this material aboard U.S. Coast Guard inspected vessels in the United States.  
1.2 Supplemental requirements and exceptions to the requirements discussed herein for ships of the U.S. Navy are included in Supplementary Requirements S1.  
1.3 This standard measures and describes the response of materials, products, or assemblies to heat and flame under controlled conditions, but does not by itself incorporate all factors required for fire hazard or fire risk assessment of materials, products, or assemblies under actual fire conditions.  
1.4 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to inch-pound units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard.  
1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.  
1.6 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.
