Basic methods of fireproofing protecting columns and beams with gypsum base and veneer finishes mineral fireproofing and gypsum drywall.
Fireproofing steel beams with plasterboard.
For this reason steel beams are covered in either two layers of plasterboard of one single layer or fire rated plasterboard.
F exterior walls 57 59 steel framed including loadbearing and non loadbearing.
Steel is a durable noncombustible fire resistant material.
Steel column or beam encased in either fireshield or shaftliner plasterboard frame.
Both of these give fire protection to a steel beam for so many minutes usually 90.
And wood framed including loadbearing.
Spray applied fireproofing steel beam fireproofing foam insulation solution is an innovative spray foam insulation installer serving residential commercial and steel frame projects.
Plaster boarding a steel beam to comply with building control.
You need two thicknesses of boarding.
Spray applied fireproofing is primarily used to protect rigid structural elements including columns beams metal decking and some steel joists from the effects of heat generated during a fire.
We offer a choice of two systems depending on requirements firstly the firecase system which uses the glasroc f firecase board to form a frameless encasement around the beam or column and secondly the gyplyner encase system which uses gyproc fireline plasterboard mounted on a gypframe metal.
While not its primary use sfrm may also provide acoustical treatment and thermal insulation for large areas where the structural members and metal decking are left exposed but treated with sfrm.
When properly designed and constructed steel framing can preserve its structural integrity in the event of a fire and exposure to prolonged elevated temperatures.
Option 1 furring channel track with encasement clips at 600mm max centres friction fitted to structural frame flanges option 2 plasterboard directly fixed to structural steel 13mm fireshield can be substituted with 13mm trurock.
Structural steel buildings perform well when exposed to fire.
