    Fire-Resistant Decks

    3 MIN READ
    This field demonstration shows the performance of three decking products approximately 35 minutes after a standard 6-inch by 6-inch Class B burning brand was placed on the top surface of each deck. The untreated redwood (far right) and the wood-plastic composite at the center comply with California Building Code Chapter 7A requirements for “combustible” materials, while the wood-plastic composite at the far left does not. None of these products, however, meet the requirements for an “ignition-resistant material” as outlined in the IWUIC, NFPA 1144, or CBC Chapter 7A.
