Certification & Testing
Combustibility:
K-Roc® Karrier Ultima and Ultima Plus Wall Panels are a bonded laminated material. It achieves the following fire test results, as required by clause C2D10 (6)(g) of the National Construction Code (NCC). Therefore, it can be used wherever a non-combustible material is required by the NCC.
Component materials are tested to AS 1530.1:1994 (R2016):
Mineral wool core is not deemed combustible
Panel steel skin (uncoated) is not deemed combustible
Panel assembly is tested to AS/NZS 1530.3:1999:
Ignitability index: 0
Spread of Flame index: 0
Heat Evolved Index: 0
Smoke Developed Index: ≤3
There are two factory-applied adhesive layers applied during the manufacture of the product. Each adhesive layer does not exceed 1 mm in thickness, and the total thickness of the adhesive layers does not exceed 2 mm in thickness.
Group number:
When assessed in accordance with AS 5637.1:2015 via testing to AS ISO 9705:2003 (R2016) K-Roc Karrier Ultima and Ultima Plus Wall Panels achieve the following:
Group Number: 1
Smoke growth rate index (SMOGRARC) (m2/S2 x 1000): <100.
Fire Resistance
K-Roc® Karrier Ultima Wall Panel & K-Roc® Karrier Ultima Plus Wall Panel are tested in accordance with AS 1530.4 2014. Fire-resistance Levels (FRL) are subject to certain details including panel thickness, width, orientation, distance between supports and method of assembly.
Solutions for doors and penetrations in fire-rated applications are available for panel thicknesses ≥ 150 mm. Permissible configurations and their installation requirements are to be verified with the passive fire protection supplier.
Please contact Technical Services for the specific information on the fire-resistance levels available and the installation detail required.
Notes: Tables below must be read in conjunction with relevant fire resistance report. Tables apply to the wall system exposed to fire from either direction, but not simultaneously. Maximum FRL distance between supports are confirming the maximum from a fire resistance perspective, additional loads anticipated from wind loads or other may result in reductions to maximum allowable distance between supports. Structure has not been included in the tables.
