A material is considered non-combustible when made entirely of steel, iron, bricks, tiles,
concrete, slate, glass or a combination of these materials. Materials corresponding to ASTM
E136 and UL 763 are considered to be non-combustible materials with the exception of
gypsum, which will be considered a non-combustible material only if it is certified to withstand
an ambient temperature of use of 250°F and more.
