Fire Stopping
Fire stopping, also referred to as fire stop, is the use of fire barriers and fire rated rooms that work to contain fires for a set period of time. A requirement of this passive fire protection system is the sealing of gaps (i.e. power outlets, ducting, etc.) with fire rated barriers to assist in containing the spread of fires.
Passive Fire Protection
Passive fire protection includes the usage of fire stops and other non “active” fire protection designs such as alarms and sprinklers. Passive fire protection relies on clever spatial design and the use of fire-resistant materials to improve the fire integrity of a building and/or room.
