is there a new rule by the QCD for fire rating of portable cabins?
I am looking if there is new ruling as last year or this year to the fire rating of portable cabins by the QCD. I am looking for documentation or a source where I can find the standards in use. I hear it is now 2 hour fire rating and would like to verify. Thanks to everyone that can point me in the right direction.
