We delve more in depth below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>FRL explained: how to build bushfire-resilient buildings with ICF<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mbqld.com.au\/services-and-advice\/building-planning-and-development\/technical-info\/national-construction-code\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">National Construction Code<\/a>\u00a0 abbreviation FRL stands for Fire Resistance Level. FRL refers to the time period, measured in minutes, the material upholds the Schedule 5 criteria before failure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Schedule 5 criteria are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Structural Adequacy: how long will the material or structure stay up<\/li><li>Integrity: how long will the material or structure not allow any fire or hot gasses through<\/li><li>Insulation: How long will the material or structure stop heat transfer.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Failure criteria are specified in the fire test standard AS1530.4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The fire resistance level is expressed in minutes and lists the three criteria in the order given above. For example, an FRL of 180\/180\/180 means a minimum fire resistance period of 180 minutes across all criteria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out Eco Block\u2019s FRL ratings in the table below. Note, the minimum FRL a Class 1 building (a single dwelling like your average home) is FRL 60\/60\/60. Eco Block ICF formwork far exceeds this minimum across all of our series and offers superior fire protection than even traditional building methods.\u00a0 For this reason, we\u2019re seeing a surge in popularity for our ICF in the construction industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eco-block.com.au\/eco\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/2-Product-Specifications-and-Compliance-with-BCA-AS.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"440\" height=\"162\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eco-block.com.au\/eco\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/2-Product-Specifications-and-Compliance-with-BCA-AS.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3224\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.eco-block.com.au\/eco\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/2-Product-Specifications-and-Compliance-with-BCA-AS.png 440w, https:\/\/www.eco-block.com.au\/eco\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/2-Product-Specifications-and-Compliance-with-BCA-AS-300x110.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 440px) 100vw, 440px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eco-block.com.au\/eco\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/3-FRL-1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"541\" height=\"538\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eco-block.com.au\/eco\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/3-FRL-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.eco-block.com.au\/eco\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/3-FRL-1.png 541w, https:\/\/www.eco-block.com.au\/eco\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/3-FRL-1-300x298.png 300w, https:\/\/www.eco-block.com.au\/eco\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/3-FRL-1-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 541px) 100vw, 541px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In this spec chart, the fire rating of the Eco Block ICF is emphasised.
