The present technical work is based on the study of behavior of materials against fire, to calculate the index of vertical inflammation of the textile materials used inside the bodywork, this study has the need to know the index of inflammation. It is a requirement that bodywork companies must have to be qualified by the Ecuadorian INEN standard. For the fulfillment of this it started by an investigation to know which were the main textile materials that are used in the bodywork. Then, we proceeded to the use of ASTM D6413 Norm, materials and supplies necessary for the design and construction of the vertical chamber, with this design and following the guidelines of the standard of the Norm, the flammability test was done. Once the vertical inflammation test has been carried out, procedures to establish for the most appropriate textile materials for use inside bodywork, in order to guarantee the greatest possible safety in the event of the presence of fire inside it or in case of having a body fire.
