Effective firefighting solution for steel structure
Besides the commonly known advantages, structural steel also has limitations such as heat resistance. When the temperature reaches 550 degrees Celsius, the steel loses 40% of the bearing capacity of the structure. When the stability of the entire structure is lost, the structure is in danger of collapsing, causing serious damage to people and property.
Firefighting steel structures for construction is now the duty of all construction enterprises. Safety for people and property is a top priority. Thereby, fire prevention measures are also issued more rigorously by the State. Flame-retardant materials that protect steel structures are also in high technical demand.
The steel structure is one of the most common materials used in building construction. So, when a fire occurs, the steel structure will be protected for a certain period while people are safely evacuated and the fire department can extinguish the fire.
Use in construction works:
Fireproof panel for steel structure
A fireproof panel is a type of cladding material that covers the Steel Column, Steel Truss, and Steel Beam to protect them from fire. The thickness of the panel is determined based on the required time limit for the fire resistance of the steel structure.
The outstanding advantages of the product are:
- Non-flammable, non-black smoke, and non-toxic.
- Sustainability in wet environments.
- Environmentally friendly green materials.
- Meet all standards of fire protection inspection.
Fireproof paint
Fireproof paint is made of acrylic resin, polyphosphate compounds, pigments, and active ingredients. When exposed to fire, these ingredients react to create a thick layer of insulation. Products include primer and flame retardant paint.
- Fireproof primer layer: has an anti-corrosion effect on steel surface, and enhances the ability to bond with fireproof coating. Epoxy primer or equivalent may be used.
- Flame retardant paint: the main effect is to expand and create an insulating film when exposed to fire and high temperature for a long time.
