Fire Resistant Rated Joint

Question

Posted by c balmost 2 years ago

Hello,
I'm looking for fire resistant joint systems for a wood beam that runs mid-height along a rated wall. See attached sketch. Are you aware of any similar systems or engineering judgements? Thank you.

Hello - there would not be a listed system for this condition. As the detail shows, we would need to evaluate this condition with an Engineering Judgment for a cold smoke seal.

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: hilti.com/ej (US) or hilti.ca/ej (Canada.)
