| | 1) CONTRACTOR SUBMITTED QEP 1/4 INCH CORK UNDERLAYMENT |
| | BUT NO TESTING REPORTS. QEP IS A SUBSIDARY OF AMORIM |
| | GROUP. AMORIM GROUP IN THE PAST BOUGHT OUT BADGER CORK. |
| | ONE OF THE REQUIRED TEST IS FLAME SPREAD/ SMOKE |
| | DEVELOPMENT. WE HAVE THE BADGER CORK TESTING AND |
| | LETTERS FROM AMORIM CORK THAT ALLOWS FOR BOTH QEP AND |
| | ACOUSTICORK TO USE THE BADGER FLAME SPREAD REPORT. |
| | WHAT IS STILL NEEDED IS COMPLIANCE REPORTS FOR IIC |
| | RATING AND STC RATING FOR 6 INCH CONCRETE SLAB, WITH NO |
| | DROP CEILINGS. I DO NOT BELIEVE YOU WILL FIND REPORTS |
| | ON A 6 INCH SLAB THAT WILL MAKE THE REQUIRED RATINGS. |
