Fire Stopping

The correct selection and the installation of fire stopping systems as tested are critical to ensure that the required fire protection of the fire compartment elements is maintained. There are many types of fire stopping, and the choice depends on a range of factors including type of service and their location within an opening, the size of the opening and the load-bearing requirement, gaps or linear gap between elements etc.  For instance, the required fire rating  achieved at the point of service penetration through a block-work wall may not be achieved for a dry lined wall, so the importance of understanding the ability of each firestopping system is vital.

Doing it right, the first time, is not only piece of mind, but the most cost effective course of action.
