Fire Protection and Upgrade for Timber Floors

Timber floors must be inspected and tested in accordance with BS 476: Part 21: 1987 on the criteria of load bearing integrity and insulation in a case of fire from below.

 

Fire Protection and Upgrade to Timber Beams, Timber Joists and Timber Floors.

 

Fire Protection provides a range of simple and cost effective means of upgrading the fire resistance of newly constructed and existing timber floors in full compliance with the building regulations and BS476. Fire Protection methods are ideal for insulating steel structures from the high temperatures generated by fire. They are either reactive or non-reactive systems, most commonly boards, sprays and thin film-like intumescent coatings. The non-reactive type is the most common, for example special boards and sprays. The reactive type, less common, includes thin film intumescent coatings, which can be applied either off site or on site.

 

Benefits of upgrading the fire protection system for timber floors:

 

  • Simple, cost effective method of increasing the fire resistance of timber compartment floors;
  • The fire performance can be up to 90 minutes;
  • The system is suitable for installation in both new and existing buildings;
  • The components are easily manageable which allows the system to be installed by using basic tools.
