Objectives How passive fire protection (PFP) works Testing and certification requirements for epoxy PFP Main factors that determine PFP thickness Advantages of Pyroclad X1 Estimating a project Sample specification Application methods and equipment How Passive Fire Protection (PFP) Works Why Protect Steel? To protect assets Maintain points of egress for personnel Prevent structural collapse Save lives Why Does Steel Require PFP? Steel looses load carrying capacity as the core temperature increases Steel begins to deform at 427 C (800 F) PFP extends the time it takes to reach the failure point Limiting temperature is project specific (200 C - 600 C / 392 F - 1112 F) Most projects require 400 C limiting temperature Pyroclad X1 Description 100% solids (solvent free) 2 component epoxy PFP Jet fire and hydrocarbon pool fire protection for structural elements, beams, columns, bulkheads, underdecks and risers. Light weight / Low density: g/cm High Temp Mesh (carbon fiber) How Pyroclad X1 Works Applied like a paint in multiple passes (5 mm/coat) Durable finish that can be topcoated Passive coating under normal conditions When exposed to fire, Pyroclad X1 intumesces, or swells up to 10 times original thickness producing a heat blocking char Reaction insulates steel for a given amount of time Testing And Certification Fire Environments Sonic velocity, high pres
