I was reading through ESR-4143 and it states that these an...

Water and drain connections coming from floor below, terminate in open wall box made of 20 gauge steel (see attachment). Wall is UL #U465. Need UL for proper fire sealing whether it be some type of puddy pad or just a bead of caulk around edge embedded in wall.

6 steel pipes, Qty 3, individual penetrations thru 2hr, 12 concrete wall. single side access. Annular space varies from 0 to maybe 1.5. I don't want to have wallboard in this area.

I am trying to confirm the appropriate firestopping system for PVC pipe larger that 2. For a through-penetration condition, 2-hr rating, is there a UL system that uses only fire caulk? Or is a system with wrap strip or collar required?

Good afternoon, I have questions related to the hole requirement for 3/4 Dia Rod with epoxy specified above. In ESR report, it recommended 7/8 hole for 3/4 Dia Rod; However, the field would like to drill 1 hole because of the field condition, and still want to use 3/4 Dia rod. Will this affect the Hilti Profis output? Does C...
