Fire coating for steel beams.

Also known as intumescent paint this method provides fire resistance to structural steel members. Structural steel protection columns beams. One of the key benefits is that intumescent coatings will expand as much as 100 times the original thickness of the material providing superior fire resistance by creating a buffer between the fire and the steel members the coating will undergo a chemical reaction and. 3 data for great britain tata steel steel construction fire protection 2013.

Hilti fire finish 120 cfp sp wb is a high performance water based intumescent fire resistive material or ifrm for architecturally exposed structural steel in interior and exterior applications with approved top coats.

70 while cladding with boards are used by approx. When subjected to high heat these coatings expand to many times their original thickness forming an insulating blanket that protects the steel member from heat. 25 and fire stopping sprays by approx. These coatings allow for fire ratings of up to four hours.
