1.Floor or Wall Assembly — Min 4-1/2 in. thick reinforced lightweight or normal weight (100-150 pcf) concrete. Wall may also be constructed of any UL Classified Concrete Blocks*. Max diam of opening is 4 in.
See Concrete Blocks (CAZT) category in the Fire Resistance Directory for names of manufacturers.
2.Through Penetrants — One nonmetallic pipe to be installed either concentrically or eccentrically within the firestop system. The annular space shall be min 0 in. (point contact) to max 1-5/8 in. Pipe to be rigidly supported on both sides of floor or wall assembly. The following types and sizes of nonmetallic pipes may be used:
A.Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) Pipe — Nom 2 in. diam (or smaller) Schedule 40 cellular or solid core ABS pipe for use in closed (process or supply) or vented (drain, waste or vent) piping systems.B.Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) Pipe — Nom 2 in. diam (or smaller) Schedule 40 cellular or solid core PVC pipe for use in closed (process or supply) or vented (drain, waste or vent) piping systems.C.Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride (CPVC) Pipe — Nom 2 in. diam (or smaller) SDR 17 CPVC pipe for use in closed (process or supply) piping systems.
3.Firestop System — The firestop system shall consist of the following:
A.Packing Material — Foam backer rod firmly packed into opening as a permanent form. Packing material to be recessed from top surface of floor or both surfaces of wall as requred to accommodate the required thickness of fill material.B.Fill, Void or Cavity Material* — Caulk — Min 2 in. thickness of fill material applied within the annulus, flush with top surface of floor or both surfaces of wall. At point contact location between concrete and pipe, a min 1/4 in. diam bead of fill material shall be applied to the concrete/pipe interface on top surface of floor or both surfaces of wall.
