drywall on plywood fire rating

Mark:

 

3 places to look.  1.  UBC Table 7-B fire ratings of partitions, IBC Table 720.1.  2.  Gypsum Association (GA)  www.gypsum.org.  Fire ratings for wood stud partitions.  A similar condition is GA file No WP3330 using wood fiberboard under drywall.  3.  U.L. publishes fire rated design assemblies.
