Build the Fire Protection Together
It is a general term for a passive fire protection system of various materials and components that are used to seal openings and joints in fire resistive wall and/or floor assemblies.
Firestop Systems prevent unprotected horizontal and vertical MEP penetrations in a fire-resistance-rated wall or floor assembly from creating a route, by which fire and smoke can spread. e.g., where a pipe passes through a firewall.
Fire stopping is also to seal around gaps between fire resisting constructions, e.g., the linear gap between a wall and the floor above, for construction to form a complete barrier to fire and smoke spread.
Firestops are used in:
-
1
Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing, and structural penetrations.
-
2
Unpenetrated openings (such as openings for future use)
-
3
Re-entries of existing firestops.
-
4
Control joints in fire-resistance-rated wall or floor assemblies.
-
5
Junctions between fire-resistance-rated wall or floor assemblies.
-
6
Head-of-wall (HOW) joints, where non-load-bearing wall assemblies meet floor assemblies.
