2. Firewall (construction) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firewall_(construction)

   There are three main classifications of fire rated walls: fire walls, fire barriers, and fire partitions. A firewall is an assembly of materials used to delay the spread of fire a wall assembly with a prescribed fire resistance duration and independent structural stability. This allows a building to be subdivided into smaller sections.

3. Fire-resistance rating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire-resistance_rating

   Time/temperature curves used for testing the fire-resistance rating of passive fire protection systems such as firestops, fire doors, wall and floor assemblies, etc., which are used in compartmentalisation in buildings and the petrochemical industry in Europe and North America.

   Fire-resistance rated door, with wire mesh glass vision panel Industrial grade fire door rated to hydrocarbon curve and blast resistance Double fire door immediately after 3-hour fire test inside a 4-hour rated Durasteel wall Double fire door after 3-hour fire test in a 4-hour Durasteel wall, during successful 45PSI (3.1 bar) hose stream test leading to a UL Listing [1]

5. Firestop - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firestop

   A firestop or fire-stopping is a form of passive fire protection that is used to seal around openings and between joints in a fire-resistance-rated wall or floor assembly. Firestops are designed to maintain the fire-resistance rating of a wall or floor assembly intended to impede the spread of fire and smoke. [1]

6. Passive fire protection - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passive_fire_protection

   Fire-resistance rated wall assembly with fire door, cable tray penetration and intumescent cable coating. Passive fire protection (PFP) is components or systems of a building or structure that slows or impedes the spread of the effects of fire or smoke without system activation, and usually without movement.

7. Fire test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire_test

   Components and systems subject to certification fire testing include fire rated walls and floors, closures within them such as windows, fire doors, fire dampers, structural steel, and fire stops. Fire tests are conducted both on active fire protection and on passive fire protection items. There are full-scale, small-scale and bench-scale tests.

9. Drywall - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drywall

   The fire-resistance rating of the fire barrier assembly is increased with additional layers of drywall, up to four hours for walls and three hours for floor/ceiling assemblies. [23] Fire-rated assemblies constructed of drywall are documented in design or certification listing catalogues, including DIN 4102 Part 4 and the Canadian Building Code ...
