Passive fire protection at slab edge in hi-rise


Recommended Posts

Hi,
I wonder could you send me a diagram showing the installation of passive fire protection between floors at the slab edge in a hi-rise building. I am trying to convince my local hospital that a rip of close painted plywood with no sealant is not exactly in line with regulation and law, and any info you can supply will be very much appreciated.
Best regards

Steve

I don't know about me sending you a diagram I would sooner you send me a diagram to explain the situation because I do not fully understand the situation. I do agree there should be fire stopping between floors and painted plywood would not be suitable but how does it compare with Approved Document Part B Fire Safety. or why does the slab not form part of the frame or sit on a wall? Your best source of information would be The Passive Fire Protection Federation or companies that provide sealant solutions.
