STRUCTURAL STEEL FIRE PROTECTION
The extreme temperature of a fire can cause significant damage to key load-bearing elements of your premises. Speak to Elite Fire Stop and A1 Fire Stopping Services to make sure you have adequate structural steel fire protection in place. We are Sheffield based but cover the whole of the UK, ensuring the highest level of fire protection.
DON’T LET STRUCTURAL STEEL FAIL
If the structural steel elements in your building fail during a fire, the results could be disastrous. Insulating them against high temperatures can stop parts of your premises collapsing, buying vital time for people to get out and for the emergency services to arrive. Speak to Elite Fire Stop or A1 and we’ll give you our recommendations on which intumescent paints, coatings and fire encasement boardings will work best.
OUR PROTECTIVE COATINGS INCLUDE:
-
Cementitious coatings - These low density fibres, also known as Spray-applied Fire Resistive Materials (SFRM) can be applied wet or dry, direct to the steel
-
Intumescent coatings - Intumescent coatings can expand up 100 times their original thickness, creating a buffer between the heat and steel
-
Fire encasement boarding - Easy to install, these rigid boards add extra protection and also improve thermal insulation and acoustic control
MEET YOUR LEGAL OBLIGATIONS
Structural steel protection is a part of building regulations, as it can mean the difference between building damage and complete collapse. This type of passive fire protection works well and can also be integrated as part of a more comprehensive fire strategy. Speak to our IFC, IFSM and Firas certified engineers to arrange an initial consultation.
