Passive Fire Systems Installation
Compliant treatment, inspection and auditing of service penetrations through fire-resistant building elements.
We provide passive fire system installation and routine servicing for new and existing buildings. Our services cover the treatment of service penetrations through fire-resistant building elements, including pipes, cables, cable bundles, ducts and switch outlets. We assess each penetration and install an appropriate tested system to help maintain the required fire resistance of the wall, floor or other separating element.
Passive Fire Installation Services
Assessment & System Selection
We review the substrate, service type, penetration size, configuration and required fire-resistance level before selecting a suitable tested system.
Service Penetration Treatment
We install passive fire protection systems for pipes, cables, ducts, switch outlets and other building services passing through fire-resistant walls and floors.
Tested System Compliance
Systems are selected and installed with reference to relevant fire-test evidence in accordance with AS 1530.4 and the requirements of AS 4072.1.
Documentation & Identification
We record installed systems, locations and product details to support project handover, future inspections and ongoing asset management.
Annual Inspections & Desktop Audits
We conduct annual inspections and desktop audits of existing passive fire systems on both new and existing projects, assessed against AS 4072.1.
Our inspection and audit services may include:
- ✓ Review of fire-stopping registers, plans, schedules, product data and fire-test evidence
- ✓ Visual inspection of accessible penetration seals and control-joint systems
- ✓ Comparison of installed configurations with documented tested systems and approved details
- ✓ Identification of missing, damaged, altered or inadequately documented treatments
- ✓ Photographic reporting, defect registers and recommendations for rectification or further investigation
Where defects or documentation gaps are identified, we provide practical recommendations and can undertake compliant rectification works using suitable tested systems.
