The minimum thickness of gyp- sum plaster or portland cement plaster used in a fire -resis- tance -rated system shall be determined by the prescribed fire tests. The plaster thickness shall be measured from the face of the lath where applied to gypsum lath or metal lath. 718.2 Plaster equivalents. For fire -resistance purposes, t/2 inch (12.7 mm) of unsanded gypsum plaster shall be deemed equivalent to 3/4 inch (19.1 mm) of one -to -three gypsum sand plaster or 1 inch (25 mm) of portland cement sand plaster. 718.3 Noncombustible furring. In buildings of Type I and II construction, plaster shall be applied directly on concrete or masonry or on approved noncombustible plastering base and furring. 718.4 Double reinforcement. Plaster protection more than 1 inch (25 mm) in thickness shall be reinforced with an addi- tional layer of approved lath embedded at least 3/4 inch (19.1 nun) from the outer surface and fixed securely in place. Exception: Solid plaster partitions or where otherwise determined by fire tests. 718.5 Plaster alternatives for concrete. In reinforced con- crete construction, gypsum plaster or portland cement plaster is permitted to be substituted for "2 inch (12.7 mm) of the required poured concrete protection, except that a minimum thickness of 34 inch (9.5 mm) of poured concrete shall be pro- vided in reinforced concrete floors and 1 inch (25 mm) in rein- forced concrete columns in addition to the plaster finish. The concrete base shall be prepared in accordance with Section 2510.7. SECTION 719 THERMAL- AND SOUND -INSULATING MATERIALS 719.1 General. Insulating materials, including facings such as vapor retarders and vapor permeable membranes, similar cov- erings and all layers of single and multilayer reflective foil insulations, shall comply with the requirements of this section. Where a flame spread index or a smoke -developed index is specified in this section, such index shall be determined in accordance with ASTM E 84 or UL 723. Any material that is subject to an increase in flame spread index or smoke -devel- oped index beyond the limits herein established through the effects of age, moisture or other atmospheric conditions shall not be permitted. Exceptions: 1. Fiberboard insulation shall comply with Chapter 23. 2. Foam plastic insulation shall comply with Chapter 26. 3. Duct and pipe insulation and duct and pipe coverings and linings in plenums shall comply with the Interna- tional Mechanical Code. 4. All layers of single and multilayer reflective plastic core insulation shall comply with Section 2613. 719.2 Concealed installation. Insulating materials, where concealed as installed in buildings of any type of construction, shall have a flame spread index of not more than 25 and a smoke -developed index of not more than 450. Exception: Cellulose loose -fill insulation that is not spray applied, complying with the requirements of Section 719.6, shall only be required to meet the smoke -developed index of not more than 450. 719.2.1 Facings. Where such materials are installed in con- cealed spaces in buildings of Type III, IV or V construction, the flame spread and smoke -developed limitations do not apply to facings, coverings, and layers of reflective foil insulation that are installed behind and in substantial contact with the unexposed surface of the ceiling, wall or floor fin- ish. Exception: All layers of single and multilayer reflective plastic core insulation shall comply with Section 2613. 719.3 Exposed installation. Insulating materials, where exposed as installed in buildings of any type of construction, shall have a flame spread index of not more than 25 and a smoke -developed index of not more than 450. Exception: Cellulose loose -fill insulation that is not spray applied complying with the requirements of Section 719.6 shall only be required to meet the smoke -developed index of not more than 450. "-719.31 Attic floors. Exposed insulation materials installed on attic floors shall have a critical radiant flux of not less than 0.12 watt per square centimeter when tested in accor- dance with ASTM E 970. 719.4 Loose -fill insulation. Loose -fill insulation materials that cannot be mounted in the ASTM E 84 or UL 723 apparatus without a screen or artificial supports shall comply with the flame spread and smoke -developed limits of Sections 719.2 and 719.3 when tested in accordance with CAN/ULC S 102.2. Exception: Cellulose loose -fill insulation shall not be required to be tested in accordance with CAN/ULC S 102.2, provided such insulation complies with the requirements of Section 719.2 or 719.3, as applicable, and Section 719.6. 719.5 Roof insulation.
