<blockquote> For this construction category, columns were required to
have a 2 h rating as established by the Standard Fire Test (ASTM E 119);
beams were required to have a 1½ h rating. The instructions to the
bidders for the WTC 7 job were to bid on a 3 h rating for the columns
and a 2 h rating for the metal deck and floor support steel, which
corresponded to the more stringent fire resistance requirements for Type
1B (unsprinklered) construction. These ratings were to be achieved by
application of Monokote MK-5, a gypsum-based SFRM that contained a
vermiculite aggregate. According to the Underwriters Laboratories (UL)
Fire Resistance Directory (1983), these ratings required a thickness of
22 mm (7/8 in.) of Monokote MK-5 to be applied to the heavy columns, 48
mm (1 7/8 in.) to be applied to the lighter columns, 13 mm (1/2 in.) to
be applied to the beams, and 10 mm (3/8 in.) to be applied to the bottom
of the metal deck. Private inspectors found that the applied SFRM
thicknesses were consistent with these values</blockquote>
