About

HOWTEC runs a fire-resistance laboratory (防耐火試験室) at its Tokyo test institute. It does 防耐火性能試験 (performance evaluation tests for ministerial approval) on fire-resistant and quasi-fire-resistant load-bearing and non-load-bearing walls, eaves, fire doors and shutters (防火設備), and compartment penetrations. Its furnace is wall-only. It also runs approval schemes for timber connectors and moisture meters.
