A new composite concrete deck abuts an existing masonry exterior wall without any gap due to structural requirements. To maintain a 1hr horizontal separation, a firestop is required around the edge of the slab. Please advise if there is a specific firestop detail for this application. Thanks,
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to the Hilti Fire Protection Design Team to assist you with your firestop engineering needs.
Unfortunately, we currently do not have any firestop systems where the floor abuts the wall, please submit an Engineering Judgement request so we can provide you with a Firestop Solution. I've included information on how to submit below.
We are proud to announce the launch of the HILTI CONSTRUCTION PLATFORM (HCP), our company’s new engineering service website. This platform will be the home for all of your Fire Protection Design needs. Instead of emailing a PDF form for a request, the platform enables you to create new Engineering Judgment (EJ) requests, submit revisions to previously completed EJs or connect with an FPE on a question. HCP also enables you to track the status of your request.
You can find more information on how to access this new platform here: http://www.hilti.com/ej (US) or http://www.hilti.ca/ej (Canada.) If you have any questions or require assistance navigating the platform, please call Customer Service for help at 1-800-879-8000 (US) or 1-800-363-4458 (Canada.)
Along with HCP, Hilti is excited to announce our new mobile app for all your firestop needs: Hilti Firestop Selector. Using the Firestop Selector app gives you easy access to the Hilti Fire Protection Design Team from the jobsite, on the road, or in the office to request a new EJ, an EJ Revision, or a Question anytime, anywhere. You can download the app using the appropriate link below.
