Local building codes, which require fire-safe construction for many building applications rely on two ratings to evaluate compliance:

- Flame spread rating of a material
- Fire-resistance rating of a construction assembly 

These ratings are based on ASTM standards, and compliance is determined by several independent, nongovernmental testing services such as Underwriters Laboratories, Inc.

Flame spread and fire-resistance ratings are two separate issues, and they must be addressed independently in selection and specification.
