Through penetration at a 2hr fire rated shaft wall but have access to caulk only one side

I have a steel conduit penetrating a 2hr fire rated shaft wall, I have access to caulk only one side of the wall and the steel conduit doesn't have a sleeve. Is there any UL detail or can an engineering judgement be provided for this condition where only one side caulking will suffice?

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to the Hilti Fire Protection Design Team to assist you with your firestop engineering needs.

W-L1380 (see attached) may be an appropriate system for this condition; however, if this system does not address your condition, 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.
