FireCLAD Fire rated exterior walls for industrial buildings
This brochure provides a comprehensive description of the Boral Plasterboard Exterior FireClad® System - a cost effective method of upgrading the fire resistance of industrial exterior walls using a steel building frame system instead of precast masonry. Utilising ‘a membrane’ of Tyvek® Homewrap™ from Dupont and combined with layers of Boral Plasterboard Firestop attached to Colorbond® steel cladding, the two exterior systems have fire ratings of 1 hour (FRL 60/60/60) and 11/2 hours (FRL 90/90/90). The system is easy to install where proximity to adjoining buildings prevents conventional construction. Detailed drawings of the system and its applications accompany the text.
