Fire-resistance tests — Elements of building construction — Part 9: Specific requirements for non-loadbearing ceiling elements

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.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO
member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical
committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has
the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in
liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) on all
