  • Course Description: AEC Daily: Pitfalls and Challenges of NFPA 285 Engineering Analysis

    Engineering analysis is a necessary tool to provide fire protection and safety for our buildings. The exponential number of wall assembly combinations and detailing of enclosure assemblies in the built environment prevent the opportunity to confirm fire performance through direct testing. This is especially true with the required investment of time, effort, and cost for larger-scale tests such as NFPA 285. Qualified fire engineering teams, in partnership with third-party labs and product manufacturers, offer the opportunity to extend successful test results beyond the tested specimen through an engineering analysis report. This presentation discusses the opportunities, challenges, and limitations present when considering the acceptance of test data extended to support substitution or modification to an assembly.

    Identify appropriate content within an engineering analysis report pertaining to exterior walls.

    Describe the different types of engineering analysis reports.

    Explain the engineering analysis process and considerations when reviewing fire test data for extension.

    Identify the relevant code path that allows for engineering analyses.
