Question:

How long is the fire resistant limit for ultra thin fire retardant coating?

How long is the fire resistant limit for ultra thin fire retardant coating?

Answer:

The fire resistant limit of ultra-thin fire retardant coating is 1.5 hours, generally fire resisting time for thin fire retardant coatings does not exceed 1.5 hours. If the time exceeds 1.5 hours, thick fire resistive coating should be uesd. There is no detailed stipulation for ultra-thin fire retardant coating, and the thickness of the inside is the fire resistance limit shall reach certain time(at least). If fire resistance limit is 2.5 hours, the thickness shall be 4.9mm. If the fire resistance limit is 2 hours, the thickness is 3.5mm. If fire resistance limit is 1.5 hour, the thickness should be 1.75mm.
There is no detailed stipulation for ultra-thin fire retardant coating, and the thickness of the inside is the fire resistance limit shall reach certain time(at least). In engineering, the thickness of the fire retardant coating is generally determined according to the manufacturer's testing report. We use thin fire retardant coating for steel structure: if the fireproof limit is 2.5 hours. the thickness should be 4.9mm. If fire-resistant limit is 2 hours, the thickness shall be 3.5mm. If the refractory limit is 1.5 hours, the thickness shall be 1.75mm. If the limit is 1.0, the thickness is 1.17mm hope my answer can help you
According to the "code for fire protection design of tall buildings", the fire resistance time of the component is at the first level: 3 hours, beam: 2 hours, floor: 1.5 hours;if fire resistance level is level 2, the requirement for time of fire resistance component is the column: 2.5 hours, beam: 1.5 hours, floor: 1 hours. For fire resistant coating, fire resistance time for ultra-thin fire retardant coating is less than 1.5 hours. If the time exceeds 1.5 hours, thick fire resistive coating should be uesd.
