I am looking for a detail for a 3-hour top of wall (gypsum board with metal framing) where wall is penetrated by open web steel joist.
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to the Hilti Fire Protection Design Team to assist you with your firestop engineering needs.
We do not have a listed system for a 3-hour gypsum head of wall joint with a penetration through it; however, we can address your application through an Engineering Judgment, which will be a custom detail showing your exact application with the firestop components required to maintain the stated ratings.
Hilti is proud to announce the launch of our engineering website, the HILTI CONSTRUCTION PLATFORM (HCP). This platform will be the home for all of your Fire Protection Engineering needs, including Engineering Judgment requests. You can find more information on how to access this new platform here: https://www.hilti.com/ej (US) or https://www.hilti.ca/ej (Canada.)
