| Fully Stressed Steel Members will loose their structural integrity when exposed to temperatures around 550 degrees C. |
| Where Structural steel members are required to have fire resistance, they can be protected by insulating materials. |
| This can be achieved by either the sprayed methods mentioned previously or by one of the boarded solutions listed here below. |
| Mineral Fibre board - Ideal within concealed areas where there are no aesthetic requirements. Useful where site conditions or budget constraints prevent the use of a hard board system. |
| Calcium silicate / Glass reinforced board - Still relatively cost effective these can be used where a decorative finish is required. |
| These types of boards can be Tape & Jointed, Painted or Plastered. |
| High performance boards - These systems have been developed for various criteria including, high impact, sterile environments, high levels of fire resistance and high decorative finishes |
| All systems used by LDDFP are fully tested to BS476 - parts 20 and installed by fully trained operatives |
