1.0.3 The design, construction and acceptance of firestop for buildings shall be implemented based on the relevant national policies, comply with the provisions of relevant laws and regulations on engineering construction, and ensure that it is safe and serviceable, economical and rational, environmentally friendly and healthy, and technologically advanced.
1.0.4 The design, construction and acceptance of firestop for buildings shall also meet the requirements of current national relevant standards in addition to those in this standard.
2 Terms
2.0.1 firestop
structural measure for fire protection to use materials with certain fireproof, smoke-proof and heat-insulating properties to seal or fill construction joints and penetration openings, which can cooperate with corresponding building structures or members within the designed fire-resistant time to prevent heat, flame and smoke from passing through
2.0.2 construction joint
joints between building structures or members, those between other fireproof partitions and building structures or members, and those formed between any equipment pipeline and fireproof structures or members when the former passes through these structures or members
2.0.3 penetrated item
building structures or members that need to pass through pipelines and other objects due to process and functional requirements
2.0.4 penetration item
objects passing through the penetrated item
2.0.5 penetration opening
opening formed when a penetration item passes through a penetrated item
2.0.6 blank opening
opening reserved on fireproof partition members or building structures in order to meet process and functional requirements
2.0.7 penetration firestop system
combined firestop items composed of several different types of firestop materials and their supports
3 Basic requirements
3.0.1 The fireproof, smoke-proof and heat-insulating properties of penetration firestop system shall not be inferior to the requirements for those properties of building members or structures at the firestopped part, and they shall be able to prevent this system from falling off, displacing, deforming and cracking under normal use and fire conditions.
3.0.2 Firestop materials for buildings shall be determined according to the type of the part to be firestopped, the sizes of joints or openings and the fire resistance requirements, and they shall also meet the following requirements:
1 for construction joints, flexible organic firestop materials, fireproof sealants, fireproof sealing paints and their combinations should be selected;
2 for penetration openings with small annular clearances, flexible organic firestop materials, fireproof sealants, foam firestop materials, firestop belts and collars and their combinations should be selected;
3 for penetration openings with large annular gaps, inorganic firestop materials, firestop pillows, modules, plates, belts and collars and their combinations should be selected.
3.0.3 Backing materials for firestop for buildings shall be incombustible, and should be selected in combination with the characteristics of part to be firestopped, firestop materials and firestop methods. When mineral cotton is used as the backing material, its bulk density shall not be lower than 80kg/m3, and it melting point not lower than 1,000℃. Meanwhile, before filling, the mineral cotton in its natural state shall be pre-compressed by not less than 30%, and then squeezed into the corresponding part to be firestopped.
3.0.4 When inorganic firestop material is used, the thickness of such material shall be consistent with that of penetration opening, and the joints subjected to firestop shall be filled with organic firestop material, and the filling depth shall not be less than 15mm.
3.0.5 When flexible organic firestop material is used, the filling depth of such material shall be equal to that of construction joint or annular gap, and the length shall be the full length of construction joint or annular gap. When used together with backing materials such as mineral cotton, the flexible organic firestop material shall have a filling depth of not be less than 15mm, and a length equal to the full length of construction joint or annular gap. The interior of construction joint or annular gap shall be completely filled with backing materials such as mineral cotton.
