1. IMO MSC 307(88)-Introduction

Ships sailing in international seas should meet to the requirements the SOLAS (Safety of Life at Sea Convention), the provisions of the ship. The ship is not easy to escape when a fire, test according to IMO MSC307(88) standards. IMO MSC307(88) replaces IMO MSC 61 (67).

2. FTPC IMO Resolution MSC.307(88) 测试

FTPC Part 1: Non-combustibility test

FTPC Part 2: Smoke and toxicity test

FTPC Part 3: Test for “A”, “B” and “F” class divisions

FTPC Part 4: Test for fire door control systems

FTPC Part 5: Test for surface flammability (Test for surface materials and primary deck Coverings)

FTPC Part 7: Test for vertically supported textiles and films

FTPC Part 8: Test for upholstered furniture

FTPC Part 9: Test for bedding components

FTPC Part 10: Test for fire-restricting materials for high-speed craft

FTPC Part 11: Test for fire-resisting division of high-speed craft
