Annotation of standard text ASTM F2877/F2877M-13(2019) :

This specification covers a method for evaluating insulation installed on steel or aluminium structural division as defined in IMO resolution A. 754 (18) to assure insulation is note degraded in the event of shock. The non-combustible passive fire protection insulation shall be installed to meet the highest level of commercial fire resistance expected. Lower levels of fire resistance will be allowed without additional shock level testing. This testing method is used to measure and describe the response of materials, products, or assemblies to heat and flame under controlled conditions. This specification also provides guidelines for shock test before conducting a fire resistance test. In the shock test, the fire resistant divisions, bulkheads and decks shall be tested according to the specifics required by the MIlL-S-901D, Section 3.2.1 (b) Medium Weight Shock Test.
