 FIRESTOPPING AS REQUIRED BY BUILDING CODES |
|||
When through-penetrants pass through fire-resistive rated floor-ceiling assemblies and wall or partition assemblies, they must be sealed in an appropriate fashion as to maintain fire compartment integrity. Joints in or between fire-resistive assemblies must also be sealed in an appropriate fashion as to withstand the passage of fire, smoke and combustion by-products. This guide provides information relative to where many pertinent fire stop requirements are found in several major building codes.
