Fire Stopping & Boarding by Gunfire

Gunfire Fire Stopping and Boarding

Fire Stopping

Fire stopping is the area of passive fire protection that prevents fire passing through apertures in walls and floors.

 

Specifically, fire stopping requires the installation and use of:    

  • Fire rated mastic coated batts
  • Fire curtains
  • Mastic
  • Pipe collars (compound load bearing and non-load bearing)
  • Pipe wraps (compound load bearing and non-load bearing)
  • Fire rated movement joints

Gunfire can install and apply each of these fire-stopping methods on-site and on time, ensuring your building or structure meets the necessary fire protection requirements.

 

Fire Boarding

Gunfire also specialises in fire boarding. The process of fire boarding is to encapsulate structural beams to increase their heat resistance. It also requires the construction and installation of partitions to contain and control fires should the situation arise.

 

Where necessary, Gunfire will work closely with its clients to ensure the best methods of passive fire protection are employed.
