International standards in the field of fire safety of building materials have been introduced in Russia

Technical committees for standardization carried out work under instructions No. 144 "Building materials and products" and No. 274 "Fire safety" of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of Russia on the development and examination of a group of standards, which contain harmonized with international classification and test methods of fire and technical characteristics of building materials.

The following national standards, which are being introduced in Russia for the first time, were approved by Rosstandart and came into force on August 1, 2021:

  • GOST R 59154-2020 «Building products. Reaction to fire test with thermal attack by a single burning item on building products, excluding floorings»;
  • GOST R 59137-2020 “Fire classification of building products and constructions. Part 1. Classification using data from reaction to fire tests ";
  • GOST R 59121-2020 «Fire classification of building products and constructions. Part 5. Classification using data from external fire exposure to roofs tests»;
  • GOST R ISO 5660-1-2020 «Reaction-to-fire tests. Heat release, smoke production and mass loss rate. Part 1. Determination of heat release rate by using cone calorimeter method and of smoke production rate by dynamic measurements». This standard is identical to the international standard ISO 5660-1-2015 «Reaction-to-fire tests - Heat release, smoke production and mass loss rate - Part 1: Heat release rate (cone calorimeter method) and smoke production rate (dynamic measurements)».
