ASTM C1787-20 PDF Download
Standard ENStandard Specification for Installation of Non-Metallic Plaster Bases (Lath) Used with Portland Cement Based Plaster in Vertical Wall Applications
Also Known As:
The ASTM C1787-20 standard specifies the minimum installation requirements for non-metallic plaster bases used in vertical wall applications with Portland cement-based plaster. This standard is relevant when fire resistance ratings are required for plastered assemblies and constructions. In such cases, the construction details should comply with fire test reports of assemblies that have met the specific fire rating requirements.
To achieve the desired fire resistance, sound rating, or acoustic rating for a particular assembly, the standard advises obtaining the necessary construction details from reports of fire-resistance tests, engineering evaluations, or listings from recognized fire testing, sound, or acoustic laboratories. This ensures that the installation of non-metallic plaster bases meets the required standards and provides the desired performance characteristics.
