Steel encasements Passive fire protection is a vital component of any fire safety strategy. It safeguards people s lives and limits the financial impact of damage to buildings and their contents. The protection of the superstructure from fire is especially important, as once its integrity is compromised, the whole building s stability will be at risk. Introduction Steel encasements C03 We have two types of solution: FireCase C03. S0. P0 A frameless structural steel encasement where the board linings are fixed to themselves to minimise space intrusion. The system can be used in buildings before they are fully watertight to improve speed of project handover GypLyner encase C03. S03. P0 A metal framed structural steel encasement system for greater flexibility of installation Each system section takes you through the process of selecting the required lining type and thickness to provide a range of standard structural steel beam, column and joist sizes with the fire protection level needed. oth systems are able to accept standard methods of finishing; tape and joint or Thistle skim plaster, to aesthetically match surrounding elements. An aesthetic finish is not necessary with the FireCase system to maintain its fire performance. You may also be interested in...

C03 Steel encasements Introduction Steel encasements Areas to consider when specifying Unlike some alternative fire protection technologies, for example intumescent paint, our encasement systems will give acoustic benefits by reducing sound transmission through the steelwork. Further improvements can be made to the sound insulation performance by the inclusion of Isover insulation within the system, and by modifying the abutment detailing to reduce flanking sound transmission. Refer to figure. Using FireCase or GypLyner encase could therefore offer both savings and simplification over alternative fire protection technologies that may require overboarding. Thickness of applied fire protection Glasroc F firecase and Gyproc plasterboards are manufactured to stringent factory tolerances, giving the client peace of mind that the correct thickness of fire protection has been applied, ensuring life safety in the event of a fire. All year round installation Glasroc F firecase and Gyproc plasterboards have an operational tolerance from below freezing to +49 C, whereas some alternative technologies are often +5 C to +30 C. This ensures that there are no potential problems with the build program in UK winter conditions. uilding programme efficiencies The FireCase and GypLyner encase systems allow other trades to work in close proximity and simultaneously. Some alternative technologies require areas of the site to be closed off due to the containment of overspray and fumes. Ease of maintenance Using the Regulatory Reform (fire safety) Order (RRO) the responsible person has duty of care for maintaining the buildings fire protection systems. The FireCase and GypLyner encase systems are robust but should damage occur it is easy to identify and simple to repair or replace, making management and maintenance simple for building owners. enefits to compartmentation Using the FireCase or the GypLyner encase systems will eliminate any potential problems with compartmentation. Unlike some alternative fire protection technologies, e.g. paint, using the FireCase or GypLyner encase systems will ensure that there are no potential problems with insulation failure through the steelwork.

FireCase FireCase is a frameless structural steel encasement system that provides up to 0 minutes fire protection to a wide range of universal beam, column and joist sizes. Installation is quick and easy owing to the ability to fix Glasroc F firecase boards to one another without the need for additional framing. The Glasroc F firecase lining provides a smooth, robust surface with no requirement to joint or apply a decorative treatment. 30 0 mins Refer to C0. S0. P07 System can be skim finished with Thistle PureFinish. Refer to C0. S0. P49 FireCase Steel encasements C03 Key benefits Frameless system that minimises the space needed to provide fire protection to structural steel Reduced installation time as Glasroc F firecase boards can be screw-fixed to one another without the need for other components uild-programme flexibility and earlier installation as the inherent moisture resistance capability of Glasroc F firecase means that installation of the FireCase system can commence before the building envelope is fully weather tight FireCase system is easy to inspect for continuity when compared to intumescent paint solutions, giving greater peace of mind both immediately after installation and during maintenance inspections Reduced waste and labour onsite as bespoke, pre-cut widths of Glasroc F firecase are available (subject to minimum order quantity) High levels of acoustic insulation, in addition to excellent fire protection performance, can be maintained with appropriate detailing to the abutments between GypWall partition systems and FireCase steel encasements ritish oard of Agrément (A) approved (93/935) 05 945 63 bgtechnical.enquiries@bpb.com C03.

C03 Steel encasements FireCase FireCase design Planning key factors FireCase steel encasement is suitable for protecting structural steel sections with a section factor A/V (Hp/A) up to 60m -, calculated on the basis of box protection to three or four sides as required. It will protect universal column and beam sections described in S 4: Part, and many joist and castellated beam sections. Lining selection Follow the procedure below to determine the thickness of cladding required: Option Use tables - 4 to select steel size and fire protection then read off the required board size. Option Ascertain whether protection is required on three or four sides of the section Where these criteria are not met, the partition framing must be suitably fixed to the structural steel section, through the Glasroc F firecase cladding. Where the partition abuts the web of the structural steel, a suitable steel nogging must be provided. Refer to construction detail 0. Partition to structural steelwork junctions When designing the layout of rooms requiring separation by sound insulating walls abutting structural steelwork, consideration should be given to the potential loss of sound insulation performance through the steelwork. Figures 3 to 6 are example details relating to a typical scenario where a partition is specified against a requirement of R w 50d. Although these details refer to structural steel column abutments, similar principles apply when abutting structural steel beams. We recommend that these details are checked by an Acoustic Consultant, in particular the performance via the flanking structure. Find out what period of fire protection is required 3 Refer to the A/V (Hp/A) tables 5-7. Locate the steel section to be protected, listed by its size and mass per metre, and read off the section factor A/V 4 Refer to tables 8 -. Locate the A/V value on the vertical scale on the appropriate table. Read across the chart to the column relating to the period of fire protection required and read off the designated thickness of the relevant cladding required to form the encasement 5 Select the type of board to be using the key below each table For castellated sections and cellular beams please refer to the Association for Specialist Fire Protection publication, ASFP Yellow ook - Fire Protection for Structural Steel in buildings for guidance, available to download from asfp.org.uk Partition fixing Partitions and wall linings may be fixed directly to the Glasroc F firecase cladding as long as: The fire resistance requirement of the partition is 60 minutes or less There are no special requirements for pressure resistance, e.g. around lift shafts 3 There are no special loading requirements, i.e. Heavy uty or Severe uty as defined in recognised partition performance specifications (e.g. S 534) Refer to construction detail 9. Finishing Glasroc F firecase joints can be treated using Gyproc Joint Tape bedded in Gyproc Joint Cement. External angles / corners can be reinforced using Gyproc rywall Metal Angle ead bedded in Gyproc Joint Cement. Refer to C08. S03. P0 Finishes, Jointing. If a plaster finish is required, joints should be reinforced and Thistle oardfinish, Thistle urafinish or Thistle MultiFinish applied. Refer to C08. S0. P0 Finishes, Plaster skimming and C07. S0. P0 Linings, Plaster systems. Jointing and finishing is not a requirement of meeting the specified fire resistance. oard joints / abutments must be a flush fit. Important information Where steel section web dimensions exceed 600mm, additional support will be required for the cladding. Please contact the ritish Gypsum Technical Advice Centre for guidance. All joints should be staggered by minimum of 600mm. C03. S0. P03 british-gypsum.com

FireCase installation overview This is intended to be a basic description of how the system is built. For detailed installation guidance refer to the ritish Gypsum Site ook. FireCase Steel encasements C03 For four-sided protection to steel columns, Glasroc F firecase boards are positioned and fixed board to board using Glasroc F firecase Screws. For two or three-sided protection to steel beams or columns, Gypframe FEA Steel Angles are located to both sides of the wall / soffit flange and secured using appropriate fixings. Glasroc F firecase boards are cut to width and fixed to the Gypframe FEA Steel Angles with Glasroc F firecase Screws. Where Glasroc F firecase boards abut they can be fixed together with Glasroc F firecase Screws. Additional layers of Glasroc F firecase are fixed as before, with staggered joints. For single layer steel beam encasements, additional strips of Glasroc F firecase are installed behind the ends of the facia board-ends so as to seal the joints.

GypLyner encase GypLyner encase is a fire protection system capable of providing up to 80 minutes fire resistance to structural steel columns and beams. Installation is quick and easy due to the use of simple clip fixings to secure the framing sections. The system will protect all universal column and beam sections with flange thicknesses between 6mm and 8mm. GypLyner encase will also protect many joist sections, portal frames, and castellated beam sections. It can be used in any type of building where encasement to structural steel is required. 30 80 mins Refer to C0. S0. P07 System can be skim finished with Thistle PureFinish. Refer to C0. S0. P49 GypLyner encase Steel encasements C03 Key benefits Reduced installation time due to the simple, clip-on framing system with GypLyner encase Misalignment of structural steelwork can be accommodated by the versatile framing system to ensure the lining is straight and true Improved acoustic performance as a result of the boards being fixed into a framework rather than directly into the steel beam or column amage to GypLyner encase is more easily identifiable when compared to other fire protection systems such as intumescent paint You may also be interested in...

C03 Steel encasements GypLyner encase GypLyner encase design Planning - key factors GypLyner encase steel encasement is suitable for protecting structural steel sections with a section factor A/V (Hp/A) up to 60m -, calculated on the basis of box protection to three or four sides as required. It will protect all universal column and beam sections described in S 4: Part, and many joist and castellated beam sections. uilding esign This system comprises Gypframe GL0 GypLyner Steel Framing Clips located on steel sections at 800mm centres to support Gypframe GL Lining Channels. Lining selection Follow either of the procedures below to determine the thickness of cladding required: Partition fixing Partitions and wall linings can be fixed through to the metal framework. Refer to construction details 5-6. Water vapour resistance Handy hint Where larger encasement systems are required, a boxing out method using Gypframe studs and channels can be used. Refer to construction details 7-8. Option Use tables - 4 to select steel size and fire protection then read off the required board size. Option Ascertain whether protection is required on three or four sides of the section Find out what period of fire resistance is required 3 Refer to the A/V (Hp/A) tables 5-7. Locate the steel section to be protected, listed by its size and mass per metre, and read off the section factor A/V 4 Refer to tables 8 -. Locate the A/V value on the vertical scale on the appropriate table. Read across the chart to the column relating to the period of fire resistance required and read off the designated thickness of the relevant cladding required to form the encasement 5 Select the type of board to be used For castellated sections and cellular beams please refer to the Association for Specialist Fire Protection publication, ASFP Yellow ook - Fire Protection for Structural Steel in uildings for guidance, available to download from asfp.org.uk Size of encasement The minimum dimension of encasement required for three or four-sided protection can be determined as shown in table. Vapour control can be provided to encasements which form part of an external wall lining by using Gyproc FireLine duplex as the lining. The water vapour resistance can be further improved by treating the lining surface with two coats of Gyproc rywall Sealer. Where Glasroc F firecase or Glasroc F multiboard forms the lining, vapour control can be achieved by using a suitable proprietary paint treatment. oard finishing All board joints need to be taped and filled or skimmed to ensure fire protection is provided. Refer to C08. S0. P0 Finishes. Important information Where the steel section web or flange dimension exceeds 600mm, additional support will be required for the cladding. Noggings of Gypframe GL Lining Channel are installed at 600mm centres between adjacent Gypframe GL Lining Channels to form supplementary framing. All board joints should be staggered by a minimum of 600mm.
