Types of Fireproofing
The three main types of fireproofing methods are cementitious fireproofing, intumescent fireproofing, and firestop fireproofing.
- Cementitious Fireproofing: These are gypsum-based, plaster-like coatings that look like white stucco when dried. These coatings are sprayed on the surface of the structural members that need protection. They are usually used in Cementitious fireproofing on steel beams images keep girders and beams below 540 C, where the steel will bend. The coatings are also used to protect structural concrete, such as in vehicular tunnels, from petroleum and other intense fires. Concrete members need extra fire insulation to preserve their structural integrity.
- Intumescent Fireproofing: Intumescent paints expand and char when heated to form a heat-resistant barrier. They usually contain sodium silicates. The paint coating thickens, entraining air and forming a char layer, providing greater insulation under high-heat conditions. These coatings are sprayed or brushed onto the surfaces to be protected them. While there is some interchangeability with the cementitious coatings, these paints are usually used on pipes and other metallic items like tanks and valves, where the rough thick coating of cementitious fireproofing would be in the way. Intumescent putty is used in firestops.
- Firestop Fireproofing: Firestop fireproofing involves sealing all openings and joints in fire-resistance-rated walls and floors. Division 7 install fire dampers to fill the ductwork holes and seal the ducts where they cross firewalls. Hole cuts for pipes and electrical wiring trays are usually filled completely with a specialty fire sealant made from gypsum or an elastomeric substance.
