Part 2: Test method for non-loadbearing external cladding systems fixed to and supported by a structural steel frame).
Illustrated with detailed schematics and graphs to show a typical test facility and the location of thermocouples, it provides a concise outline of the test methodology and performance criteria for assessing the systems which use framed structures. 4 pages.
