<br /> <br />THE CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH <br />PROJECT NO. 21-1011 <br />BUILDING DEPARTMENT RELOCATION TO ANNEX <br /> <br />Project No. 21-1011 November 2024 078400-2 <br /> <br />B. F-Rated Through-Penetrating Firestop Systems: Provide through-penetration firestop <br />systems with F ratings indicated, as determined per ASTM E814, but not less than that <br />equaling or exceeding the fire-resistance rating of the constructions penetrated. <br />C. Fire-Resistive Joint Sealants: Provide joint sealants with fire-resistance ratings indicated, as <br />determined per ASTM E119, but not less than that equaling or exceeding the fire-resistance <br />rating of the construction in which the joint occurs. <br /> <br />D. For Firestopping Exposed to View, Moisture, and Physical Damage: Provide products that do <br />not deteriorate when exposed to these conditions. <br /> <br />1. For piping penetrations for plumbing and wet-pipe sprinkler systems, provide <br />moisture-resistant through- penetration firestop systems. <br /> <br />2. For penetrations involving insulated piping, provide through-penetration firestop <br />systems not requiring removal of insulation. <br /> <br />E. For Firestopping Exposed to View: Provide products with flame-spread values of less than 25 <br />and smoke-developed values of less than 450, as determined per ASTM E84. <br /> <br />1.4 QUALITY ASSURANCE <br /> <br />A. Installer Qualifications: Engage an experienced Installer who is certified, licensed, or <br />otherwise qualified by the firestopping manufacturer as having the necessary experience, <br />staff, and training to install manufacturer's products per specified requirements. <br /> <br />B. Single-Source Responsibility: Obtain through-penetration firestop systems for each kind of <br />penetration and construction condition indicated from a single manufacturer. <br /> <br />C. Materials: <br /> <br />1. Fire safing insulation, fire and smoke barrier caulk, putty, fire barrier wrap/strips, fire <br />prevention pillows, fire barrier partitions, fire barrier covers complete with necessary <br />metal clips, supports, fastenings, and covers shall meet ASTM E814 for a 2-hour fire <br />rating for floors and roofs and 4-hour fire rating for fire walls as indicated. <br /> <br />2. Materials shall be listed in UL Building Materials Directory - Through Penetration Fire <br />Stops Systems and Fill Void or Cavity Materials. <br /> <br />3. Firestopping materials shall not contain lead, PCBs, ethylene glycol, or lead. <br /> <br />4. Products containing solvents or requiring hazardous waste disposal are not allowed. <br /> <br />5. Provide firestopping products containing no detectable asbestos as determined by <br />the method specified in 40 CFR Part 763, Subpart F, Appendix A, Section 1, <br />"Polarized Light Microscopy." <br /> <br />D. Fire-Test-Response Characteristics: Provide firestopping that complies with the following <br />requirements and those specified under paragraph 1.03 of this Section: <br /> <br />1. Firestopping tests shall be performed by a qualified testing and inspecting agency <br />such as UL, or another agency performing testing and inspection services shall be <br />followed up for firestop systems acceptable to authorities having jurisdiction. <br /> <br />2. Through-penetration firestop systems are identical to those tested per ASTM E814
