Passive fire protection
- Intumescent coatings for the protection of structural steelwork and Timber
- Fire stopping and penetration sealing systems
Why do we need to protect the steelwork?
During a fire situation the temperature within a building can rise from ambient around 20°C, up to 1000°C. As the temperature in the building increases, so does the temperature of the steel structure that supports the building. All steel sections have wants know as a critical steel temperature. This is the temperature at which the steel section begins to lose its strength and buckle.
The building regulations require that structural steel is protected against fire, to ensure that the load-bearing strength of the steel is not decreased as the temperature increases.
There are 3 main systems used to protect structural steelwork against the risk of fire:
- Boarding:
In the form of plasterboard / mineral fibre / Calcium silicate etc - Spray:
In the form of cementitious, mineral fibre or gypsum systems - Intumescents:
Thin film intumescent basecoats
Intumesent Paint
DESCRIPTION AND USE
Inturmescent paint is a thin decorative paint system providing fire resistance to structural steel and cast iron. The unique range of hard, high quality, weather resistant finishes enhance a building's architectural or historic features.
ECONOMY AND SPEED
½ hour and 1 hour fire resistance can be achieved with a single application of inturmescent paint 1½ hour fire resistant can be achieved with just two coats.
HOW IT WORKS
Heat in a fire triggers a catalytic reaction causing expansion of an insulating char layer up to 50 times the paint film thickness. This keeps the steel below its critical temperature thus maintaining the structural stability of the building.
FIRE CERTIFICATION
We can provide a Certificate of Supply upon request for each project for Insurance, Fire and Building Control Authority and Client Records.
ESTIMATING SERVICE
Silverhill experienced Estimating Department provides realistic, confidential guidance on project costing's to Contractors and Quantity Surveyors.
TECHNICAL ADVICE
Silverhill Technical Department provides expert advice and assistance with all aspects of specification and application.
PREPARATION OF SURFACE
Steel and cast Iron should be free from rust and millscale and primed with a high-build primer 75 microns DFT or other metal primer compatible with intumescent paints. Galvanised steel should be degreased and primed with a suitable etch primer.
Inturmescent High-Build/Metal Primer may be left without further coatings or decorated with conventional paints where fire resistance is not required.
“ YOU CAN PREVENT THE SPREAD OF FIRE FOR UP TO TWO HOURS THAT COULD BE THE DIFFERENCE IN SAVING YOUR PROPERTY OR LOSING IT “
