ASHRAE 90.1
ASHRAE 90.1
ASHRAE Standard 90.1 requires Continuous Insulation (CI) be used for all commercial and some residential buildings in the United States. Continuous insulation is defined in 90.1 as “insulation that is continuous across all structural members without thermal bridges other than fasteners and service openings. It is installed on the interior, exterior, or is integral to any opaque surface of the building envelope”.
NFPA 285 Compliant
NFPA 285 Compliant
NFPA 285 is required in the International Building Code (IBC) in multiple situations. The NFPA 285 test is to determine that combustibles, when exposed to fire on the exterior face of the wall, do not spread flame over the surface or through the core of the otherwise non-combustible wall assembly.
