What's the fire endurance of fire windows?
Fire endurance of fire doors and fire windows stipulated by the fire prevention norm: Fire endurance of A class fire door or fire window is 1.2h rather than 1.5h, and fire endurance of B class fire door or fire window is 0.9h rather than 1.0h. Fire prevention code doesn't explicitly state that the fire door has thermal insulation function, so it can definitely be interpreted that the fire door only has fire integrity. For the fire door without heat-shielding performance, at certain distance from the unexposed surface, it has strong thermal radiation and is easy to hurt people. For the A class thermal insulating fire door, its fire integrity is 0.1h shorter than that of the corresponding fire door stipulated in the specification, but its heat-shielding performance and integrality is improved. All in all, compared with the specification that the fire integrity of the A class fire door should be 0.6h, it has much more improved its performance.
That is fire resistance rating, fire-resistant time in the case of fire! It can be basically classified into the following levels and the fire endurance of the fire window is as follows as well: A class fire window: no less than 1.2h; B class fire window: no less than 0.9h; C class fire window: no less than 0.6h. This is in accordance with the latest specification of gb16809-2008 fire windows.
Fire endurance of fire windows: A class fire window: no less than 1.2h; B class fire window: no less than 0.9h; C class fire window: no less than 0.6h. Technical requirements: 1. Materials and fittings: (1) Window frame should adopt the steel frame or wood frame with certain strength so as to guarantee the integrality and stability of the fitting; (2) Steel frame and mound layer can choose the galvanized steel sheet or stainless steel sheet. Its selection standard is in line with provisions of Article 5.1 in GB12955 "General Technical Requirements on Steel Fire Doors"; (3) Selection standard of wood frame and mound layer should be consistent with the provisions of Article 5.1.1 in GB14101 "General Technical Requirements on Wood Fire Doors"; (4) Filler material inside the steel frame and wood frame should be incombustible material; (5) Fireproof glass can choose the qualified product with no influence on the fire resistance test of the fire window, and its light transmittance should be no less than 75% of that of the ordinary sheet glass with the same layers; (6) Sealing material between the frame and the fireproof glass should use flame retardant material which can play the role of fire prevention and smoke control in the case of fire. (7) Hardware fittings should be approved supporting products which is detection qualified.
