Gypsum shaftwall to concrete wall joint firestopping UL listing w/ F and L rating

Is there any other listing, other than WW-S-0059, with a F and L rating? I have exhausted my searches and cannot find one, but need it, WW-S-0059 is not accepted by the State Fire Life Safety Officer because of it. Options?

Shaft-wall,joint system

Hello,

WWS0059 would be the correct listing. There is no L-rating on this system, as mentioned, but we certainly could provide you an Engineering Judgment (EJ) with an L-rating. An EJ is 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.)

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 ask a Question anytime, anywhere.

If you have any questions, please reach out to our customer service team at 1-800-879-8000 (US) or 1-800-363-4458 (Canada) for assistance.
