MastaBoard Soundshield Systems
Early Fire Hazard
When tested by the BRANZ laboratory in accordance with the requirements of AS1530.3-1989 Lafarge MastaBoard 16mm Fireshield recorded the following results:

INDEX RANGE
Ignitability 12 (0-20)
Spread of Flame 0 (0-10)
Heat Evolved 1 (0-10)
Smoke Developed 5 (0-10)

Specifying the Rw / STC
The Building Code of Australia currently requires Rw / STC of 45 for walls between living areas and Rw / STC 50 with impact Resistance for walls between occupancies where a kitchen or bathroom adjoin a living area or bedroom in an adjoining occupancy. These values are likely to increase to Rw / STC 50 and Rw / STC 55 in the next BCA amendment. (Australian Building Codes Board Regulation Document RD 2001/02.)
