C-Channel for fire rated box up

OUR SERVICESSome passive Fire protection coating for structural steel columns and beams are:

Construction codes establish the amount of hours a framework must endure a specific temperature, based on a range of building attributes. When putting together a fire protection strategy, keep three things in mind: individual safety, fire prevention, and infrastructure protection.

Steel is a material that is resistant to fire, robust and non – flammable material. Steel frames, when planned and built appropriately, can maintain mechanical strength in case of a fire or prolonged subjection to high temperatures. Formalized criteria for deciding when and what regulations exist for certain building types, floors, areas, and residences can be found in the International Building Code (IBC) and other current building codes.

Intumescent Coatings

Intumescent Coating is defined as "a fire-retardant" according to SSPC’s definition, and is used mostly in industrial and commercial places where there is a need for exterior protection of surface from corrosion, chemical degradation, ultraviolet exposure or fire.

These are epoxy, novolac and aromatic polyurethane coatings that turn completely solid and are resistant to wear and tear or corrosion and can withstand temperatures of 200°C to 600°C. As soon as it is exposed to heat, it will expand to about 50 times than the original coating on the surface applied and provide an insulating to the steel surface. This coating is also used as an insulant in buildings with a steel exterior such as industrial buildings.

Spray Applied Fireproofing

Sprayed Fire-Resistive Material (SFRM) are a passive Fire proofing method for buildings.

The most common method is spraying mineral fiber or a cementitious material on the steel. SRFMs are generally used in places where the steel parts are hidden and not clearly exposed. Make sure the steel is fabricated with approved materials and is properly tested and also ensure that any dirt or oil is removed before the application of the spray.

Rigid Board Fireproofing

Rigid Board Fireproofing involves a wool board that is attached to the beams and columns forming a box and is installed mechanically. It is much easier to install and can be applied to the desired thickness, also contributing to a lower weight on the steel surface.
