Abstract

Plastic DWV pipe will not propagate flame through a fire separation even under adverse pressure differentials if appropriate barrier devices and construction methods are used. This paper reports the results of a small-scale test program that studied the penetration of fire separations by plastic drain, waste, and vent pipe.
