PART 1 - GENERAL
A. Drawings and general provisions of the Contract, including General and Supplementary
Conditions and Division 01 Specification Sections, apply to this Section.
1.2 SUMMARY
1.3 SUBMITTALS
C. Shop Drawings: Indicate construction and fixation details for each fire protection
application. Show interface with adjoining works and include structural calculations to
demonstrate the structural stability of each application.
D. Product Certificates: For each type of board fire protection, signed by product manufacturer.
A. Comply with applicable requirements of the laws, codes, and regulations of authorities
having jurisdiction.
B. Source Limitations: Obtain board fire-protection materials through one source from a single
manufacturer.
C. Installer Qualifications: A qualified firm specializing in performing the work of this Section
with minimum three years documented experience and that is approved, authorized, or
licensed by the product manufacturer to install his product and that is eligible to receive
manufacturer's warranty. Include project names and addresses, names and addresses of
engineers and employers, and other information specified
E. Mockups: Apply mockups to verify selections made under sample Submittals and to
demonstrate aesthetic effects and qualities of materials and execution and to set quality
standard for fabrication and installation.
1.6 COORDINATION
A. Coordinate installation of board fire protection with other construction specified in other
Sections to comply with the following:
1. Avoid unnecessary exposure of board fire protection to abrasion and other damage
likely to occur during construction operations subsequent to its application.
2. Do not install board fire protection on structural members until piping and other
construction behind fire-resistive materials have been completed, uninterrupted
coverage of fire-resistive materials can be provided, and the need for subsequent
cutting and patching of fire-resistive materials has been eliminated.
3. Expedite installation of board fire protection to minimize the time structural members
are exposed without fire-resistive materials.
4. Do not install enclosing or concealing construction until after board fire protection
has been applied and inspected by Engineer.

PART 2 - PRODUCTS
1. Features:
2. Typical Properties:
B. Framing System:
C. Ancillary Materials:
1. Composite panel fire rated ceiling assemblies shall be provided as a complete tested
and approved assemblies comprising all necessary ancillary materials including but
not limited to fire rated silicone, Intumescent mastic, cold smoke seal and any
materials that were used in fire-resistance-rated tested assemblies.
PART 3 - EXECUTION
3.1 INSTALLATION
B. The system shall only be installed by manufacturer’s trained specialist licensed installers.
C. Install board fire proofing to comply with requirements for thicknesses, number of courses
(layers), construction of joints and corners, and anchorage methods applicable to fire-
resistance-rated assemblies indicated.
3.2 PROTECTION
A. Coordinate installation of board fire protection with other construction to minimize cutting
into, or removal of, installed fire-resistive materials. As other construction is successively
completed, replace or repair board fire protection that has been cut away to facilitate this
other construction. Maintain complete coverage of full thickness on members and substrates
protected by board fire protection.
