pressure classification of the duct being installed. The coating shall be of minimum 0.7mm (dry film)
thickness.
2.0 The Specification of Fire Rated Ductwork
2.1 Proof of Fire rated ductwork constructed for ventilation/smoke extract systems tested to BS476
Part 24
(1987) and ISO6944 (1985) for two hours Stability and Integrity shall be submitted. When
used as smoke extract, duct to maintain a minimum of 75% cross-sectional area along its whole
length for at least two hours. Evidence of test must be submitted. The Fire Rated Ductwork to be
protected with fire resisting coating materials to specifications by manufacturer. Composition of the
coating materials shall be of encapsulating compound, non-hazardous copolymer emulsion and
aggregates. Intumescent coating materials shall not be accepted.
1.2.1

Application

Duct fabrication, fixing of flanges to Flamebar BW11

Standard Drawing, checking of ducts to ensure correct
standard.

De- Greasing of duct - before spraying Flamebar BW11, clean

the duct of any grease or dust & hose it with water

Sealant and gasket installed on ductwork

Ducts dried & ready for spray also check to ensure sealants
are applied correctly (ducts must be properly dried before
spraying)

Preparing the duct for spraying - apply Flamebar BW11

coating to the flange/duct connections, corner, gaps.

Spraying of Flamebar BW11 - photo showing use of hopper

gun with nozzle size about 6mm to 7mm, powered by
minimum 90PSI compressor.
