How cold was it? Be careful walking, drive safe and be safe at work. Make sure your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors are working. Speaking of smoke, some of you might remember a song I sang to you a couple of years ago at the firehouse. This time I’ll cut right to the chase and get to the point. Products of Combustion, Smoke, Particulates in suspension, Soot, Fire Gases, Fuel Vapor, Tar, Carbon Monoxide, Carbon Dioxide and Hydrogen Cyanide, just to name a few, are not good for you. Products of combustion are not good for your respiratory system. They will introduce toxicity into your system, asphyxiate you, cause cardiac arrest; they will not afford you longevity. They will kill you and they will kill you, fast. I witnessed how fast smoke can move in a fire I was in, that's what made a believer out of me! In the year 2009 an average of 5.75 people died in home fires every day, that's about one every 4.2 hours. A residential structure fire occurred once every 84 seconds, another one could be reported by the time you read this. Smoke detectors and sprinklers are good, but let’s not forget basic fire and smoke prevention. Melissa Fiore and her team from Hilti Products will host the A.S.S.E. February meeting at the Elmhurst Hilti Center; 135 West Diversey Ave, Elmhurst, Illinois, see the flyer in the newsletter and RSVP by 2/20/15. Experience this great show. One of the subjects will be the Fire and Smoke stopping procedure and application. Furthermore, there will be a demonstration on anchors and tools galore. Get your hands on the latest innovations from Hilti. ASSE and ASPE members are welcome along with contractors and inspectors. Dinner and refreshments will be served. Don't forget that our March 31st meeting will be sponsored by Moen at Rocket Burger, 3700 North Clark St, Chicago, see flyer in newsletter.

It also has to be considered in the ongoing maintenance of occupied premises. The causes of fire vary and are unpredictable. Often the cause is outside the area of influence of design engineers and planners. But the ability to control the spread of a fire once it has started can still be influenced. Effective fire control within a building is generally achieved through a combination of active and passive fire protection systems. Active fire protection systems are designed to react to the outbreak of a fire which is then suppressed with the help of sprinkler systems, halogen installations, fire extinguishers or other proactive mechanical systems. Passive fire protection systems are integrated in the structure of a building, restricting the spread of fire to a fire compartment that is composed of fire rated walls, floors and ceilings. Firestopping is a passive form of fire protection by protecting the voids created in rated walls, floors or ceilings. Firestopping is designed to keep the fire contained to a certain area and to minimize the amount of smoke that travels throughout the building. Hilti Firestopping Systems The red Hilti toolbox is known at construction sites around the world and the Hilti name is a well respected brand. Most people associate Hilti with advanced drilling tools and safe fastening components. Hilti has concentrated its efforts for many years on the areas of construction where precision and safety have life-saving significance, including firestop technology. Hilti’s firestopping products provide architects and building owners with several different attributes: Outstanding quality – ready-to-use solutions that continue the well known quality that goes with the Hilti name. Simple Installations – all firestop components are supplied ready to use and are quickly and easily installed Systems approved and used worldwide – Hilti provides firestop systems that can be used locally and internationally, in compliance with corresponding regional regulations. Broad-based Solutions – Hilti provides firestop solutions for almost every opening or gap where fire or smoke may appear. Saving Lives through Innovation and Education www.us.hilti.com Overview of Firestopping January 2008 • Issue 23 Page 2 Basic Situation An uncontrolled fire can quickly become a danger for people and property. Firestopping is generally aimed at combating the undesired characteristics of fire. In spite of numerous regulations and precautions, the outbreak of fire can never be thoroughly and securely prevented. Common sense and the careful handling of possible sources of danger remain the most significant protective measures. How fire works Three things must be present and happen for a fire to break out: timeframe for a flashover depends on the speed of the spread of the fire and can vary between 3 and 15 minutes. The temperature then rises as high as approximately 1800°F. Extinguishing: As the flammable material is consumed, the temperature drops. Once all flammable material has been burned, the flames burn out or are extinguished. The fire can also be stopped by the removal of oxygen or by cooling the room through extinguishing measures. Origin Development Extinguishing • There must be a source of heat (flames) • There must be fuel available (wood, paper) Temperature • There must be oxygen (air) Time In a closed room a fire develops in three phases: origin, development and extinguishment Origin: In this phase the three factors in the triangle of fire exist in a type of reciprocal relationship (depending on the fuel present). The fire begins and the amount of flammable materials contributing to the fire expands, generating a great amount of smoke and a temperature increase. Development: The beginning of this phase of a fire is characterized by a so-called flashover. This is the spontaneous combustion of the existing flammable materials contained in a closed room. This occurs if the room temperature is between 1100°F and 1400°F. The Saving Lives through Innovation and Education www.us.hilti.com Fire Protection Terminology Stability – A measure of the structural stability of a component in case of fire. Temperature Flames Gas Overview of Firestopping January 2008 • Issue 23 Page 3 Fire walls Integrity (F-Rating) - A measure of the ability of a component to prevent through openings or the penetration of flames in case of fire. Fire floors FW FW FW FF FF FF FF FF FF FW FW = Fire-Rated Wall Flames Gas Insulation (T-Rating) – A measure of the insulation properties of a component. This means the time it takes for any point on the side of the component, facing away from the fire, to reach a temperature of 325º F + the ambient temperature. Time-Temperature Curve: Standard test methods require that the air temperature within the testing furnace ramp up to a specified temperature within a specified amount of time, and then maintain that temperature for a specified period of time. This is done to simulate the phases of a fire in a controlled environment. 2000ºF Temperature (ºF) Temperature FF = Fire Rated Floor 1300ºF Temperature Flames Gas 0 30 60 90 120 240 Time (min) How firestop products work The principles of compartmentalization are to limit the spread of a fire and to provide evacuation paths for people in the building and that the fire can be effectively extinguished. Depending on the height of the building, the area, type of usage and location of the building, the structure must be designed to contain the fire within individual sections of the building for a certain period of time (i.e., the “fire rating”). Saving Lives through Innovation and Education www.us.hilti.com To withstand the high thermal and mechanical pressures that apply during a fire, while maintaining the necessary functionality, firestop products work in different ways. Ablative: When exposed to heat, the material chars and forms a carbon-like, insulating layer that serves to protect openings. (Examples: CP 618 Firestop Putty Stick, CP 617 Firestop Putty Pad) Overview of Firestopping January 2008 • Issue 23 Intumescent with pressure: When exposed to heat, the material swells, producing a great deal of pressure. The pressure can cause openings or spaces to be fully closed off from the fire. (Examples: FS-ONE Intumescent Firestop Sealant, CP 643N/644 Firestop collars, CP648E/S Firestop Wrap Strip, CP653 Speed Sleeve) Insulating: Insulating materials conduct warmth and heat poorly, making it difficult to transfer the heat. (Examples: CP 620 Fire Foam, mineral wool) Page 4 Applications for firestopping can range from walls, floors, and ceilings, which can consist of various materials. The following areas must be considered when planning: •Perimeter joints •Construction joints •Through Penetrations Carbonized: When burned, the material forms a hard crust in an opening. (Examples: CP 606 Flexible Firestop sealant) Non-flammable material: Non-flammable materials do not disintegrate during a fire. (Examples: CP 637 Firestop Mortar) Reduced expansion of flames: The material does not contribute fuel or energy to the fire. The flames die out as a result. (Examples: CP 601S Elastomeric Firestop Sealant) . Range of Application The image on the right shows several typical applications to consider when discussing firestop. The fire-rated integrity of openings and gaps in fire rated compartments such as building joints or openings for services must be restored to restrict the passage of flames, smoke and gasses for the endurance of the hourly assembly which was breached. Hilti firestop products are designed, tested and approved for the protection of both life and property from the effects of fire, smoke and noxious gasses, thereby minimizing damage and losses. To prevent the uncontrolled spreading of a fire, the walls and ceilings of a fire compartment must be able to contain the fire and prevent its spread for a particular period. The Problem areas are: (1,2) - Construction joints (3) – Top of wall or perimeter joints (4) – Metal and plastic pipes (5) – Plastic pipes (6) – Multiple penetrations (7,8,9) – Cable trays (10) – Electrical Outlet Boxes (11) – HVAC Ducts . Saving Lives through Innovation and Education www.us.hilti.com Overview of Firestopping January 2008 • Issue 23 Page 5 Test or Evaluation Methods Hilti has over 800 tested systems which provide solutions for openings through rated walls or floors. These solutions have been proven to help minimize fire damage and provide life safety. The test standards for through penetration firestop testing is ASTM E814 (UL 1479). For joints, ASTM E1966 (UL 2079) is utilized. Other standards that apply to firestopping include ULC-S115-05M (firestop testing for Canada), ASTM E 84 (flame spread/smoke development), and ASTM E 2307 (Perimeter Joints). In some cases, Engineering Judgments may be required to address conditions not tested. These are recommendations provided typically by the firestop manufacturer. Firestopping is addressed in the International Building Code in the sections shown in the table below. Building Codes Throughout the entire firestopping process, whether it is specification, installation through an independent HiltiAccredited Firestop Contractors, or inspection, Hilti will be there to offer job site support and expertise. The Hilti highly trained sales force, Fire Protection Specialists, Field Engineers, and in-house Fire Protection Engineering Team can help you select the correct products and systems to match your specific project needs. Hilti has a support package that is unmatched in the passive firestop industry. The main driver of firestop and its installation in the building construction industry depends on the local and National Building Codes. These codes are written by National organizations and then adopted on the state and local level of government. Local building officials then enforce plan design and the actual building process based upon these codes.

What is it? The product is designed to be used in a system to seal open penetrations and joints in fire rated walls and floor assemblies 2. Where do you need it? Anytime a rated wall or floor assembly is penetrated with a penetrating item or joint and anytime there is a gap between the rated floor assembly and the exterior wall. 3. Why do you need it? o Save lives and property assets o Limit liability o Required in accordance with building codes 4. How do you find firestop systems? UL directory or Firestop Manufacturer’s technical literature 5. What is an Engineering Judgment? “EJ’s” are for applications that do not have a recognized laboratory tested system – generated by a manufacturer’s Fire Protection Engineers 6. Common incorrect products used for firestop: o Drywall Mud & Tape or “Fire Tape’” o Acoustical Sealant o Nothing at all ◦ Acoustical sealant ◦ ‘Great Stuff’ foam ◦ Mixed Products o Any combustible materials (newspaper, insulation, tissues) 7. Products do not have ratings, only systems have ratings! 8. You must find a tested system (or EJ) to match your field condition. It is either 100% right or 100% wrong 9. What information do I need in order to find a UL system for through penetrations? o Type & Thickness of Wall/Floor o Size & Shape of Opening o Fire Rating ◦ Type & Size of the Penetrating Item(s) ◦ Annular Space ◦ Percent Fill (cabling applications) 10.

In 1941 Martin Hilti founded the company with 5 employees in a garage in the Principality of Liechtenstein. Then just 26, Martin Hilti's background included studies in mechanical engineering and automotive design at the Wismar Engineering College in Germany. He and his brothers began producing equipment and components on contract for the German automotive industry. At the end of the 1940s, Martin Hilti discovered a new type of tool for fastening nails using a piston device to drive the nails in a variety of surfaces, including concrete and steel. Hilti was so enthusiastic about the machine's potential that he bought up the original design and patent rights. In the intervening years it has developed into a worldwide group of companies present in 120 countries on 5 continents. Hilti is privately owned by the Martin Hilti Family Trust, which provides independence and stability allowing Hilti to pursue its successful strategy and to offer long-term career opportunities to its team members.
