TOP OF WALL JOINT : GYPSUM WALL ASSEMBLY

Hello Terry,

We would need to write you an Engineering Judgement that states the wall assembly consist of wood studs instead of steel studs. An Engineering Judgment is a custom detail showing your exact application with the firestop components required to maintain the stated ratings. Please feel free to send in a new EJ request and provide us your application specifics so that we can provided you a custom detail.

Additionally ,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.
