4. Fire-resistance-rated assemblies are indicated by design designations from UL's "Fire
Resistance Directory" or from the listings of another qualified testing and inspecting
agency.
5. Products are identified with appropriate markings of applicable testing and inspecting
agency.
6. Fire Resistance Rating: As indicated on Drawings but not less than 2 (Two) hours.

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. Locations of Mockups: As indicated on Drawings.


2. Extent of Mockups: Approximately 9 sq. m of surface for each product indicated.
3. Approval of mockups does not constitute approval of deviations from the Contract
Documents contained in mockups unless such deviations are specifically approved by

2. Review and finalize construction schedule and verify availability of materials,


Installer's personnel, equipment, and facilities needed to make progress and avoid
delays.

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.

1.7 WARRANTY

A. Comply with Division 01 Section "Warranties".

B. Special Warranty: Manufacturer's standard form, signed by Contractor and by Installer, in


which manufacturer agrees to repair or replace board fireproofing that fail in materials or
workmanship within specified warranty period.

1. Warranty Period: Five years from date of Substantial Completion.
