The use of passive intumescent fireproofing solutions to meet life & safety goals for commercial structures continues to grow in number annually. More often facility owners are required to incorporate fire proofing protection for up to three hours in order to assure the safe departure of individuals inside the given building in the event of an emergency. Projects that include exposed structural steel generally incorporate spray applied fireproofing materials in order to achieve life & safety goals as well as delivering aesthetically pleasing solutions for structural steel exposed to view. The typical North American construction project will incorporate on-site installation of fireproofing materials. In learning from our European counterparts, shop applied intumescent coatings are providing increased efficiencies that benefit construction schedules and the overall protection of coated structural pieces.
