Re: [papercreters] flammability

I have never seen any lab reports on papercrete smoldering, just strength tests. Why not take a pc panel and a 2x4 and drywall panel, and a torch, and do the test, maybe in his presence? He's a state inspector, right? Did he give you an idea of what he would consider acceptable "lab data"? Maybe something from NMSU would satisfy him.

Does anyone have "official"  flammability data for papercrete? I have   been asked by my building inspector to present lab data for   flammability. Ideally I would see this as a mix chart of sand/clay/  cement/borons to paper ratios.  I see plenty of web pages showing the   1:1 ratio of paper to cement will smolder. Even more stating the 1:4   ratio of paper to cement will not burn. I am just looking for   something to take away liability from my building inspector.      Yahoo!
