What is fire stopping?

Fire stopping is when you take preventative measures that help to reduce the spread of fire and smoke throughout a building through additional fire safety actions like sealing gaps around pipework or electrical cables. That includes fire stopping measures for ducts and fire-rated sealants around cables, as well as other things.

What materials are used for fire stopping?

Common fire stopping materials include fire rated board, fire resistant mortar, fire board coating and fire resistant sealants and foams.

What is fire resisting ductwork?

Fire resisting ductwork, also referred to as fire resistant ductwork, is designed using regulated materials to contain fire and smoke from spreading to other areas of the building. It improves the safe operation of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems by reducing the chance of fire spreading throughout a building.

What does ductwork usually require for fire resistant properties?

Ducting for fire stopping is required to have fire resistance for a minimum for 30 minutes.

What cables are fire resistant?

Fire resistant cables come in several classes and are designed to prevent the spread of fire from one area to another through the cable. They are  cables specially developed to maintain function for a period of time, even when under high temperatures during a fire, and are typically coated with a protective sheath.
