Hi,

I need to find information of the various classifications of wall linings for an office in regards to fire safety and the prevention of fire spread. I have looked at the building regs and have found some details of the required classification of wall linings for various parts of a building (class 0, 1, 3).

Where can I find some information of what the classification actually mean?

Make sure that you don't put wallpaper on fire doors ;-)

There is a BS and a European standard.

Further info in Approved Doc B 'Internal Linings ' on P58 and examples given in Table 8 P65

It's not a lot to go on, but its free and may help you to decide if you want to splash out on the BS
