What is Firestop ?
Firestop refers to a range of materials used to prevent the spread of fire, smoke, and heat through openings, joints, or penetrations in walls, floors and ceilings. These systems are crucial in maintaining the integrity of fire-resistance-rated assemblies, ensuring that fire containment is maintained in buildings.
Firestopping materials are applied around pipes, cables, ducts, or any other penetrations that pass through fire-resistant barriers, like drywall or concrete. The firestop products may include sealants, intumescent materials, caulk, collars, or fire-resistant boards, which expand when exposed to heat, sealing gaps and preventing the passage of flames or smoke.
Firestopping is an essential part of building construction and maintenance, often specified in fire protection codes and standards.
