Draft Stop

the amount of combustible material in a building, measured in pounds per square foot of floor area.

Fire Load

A damper that closes am air duct automatically in the event of fire to restrict the passage of fire and smoke, required where a duct penetrates a fire wall, fire-rated shaft, or other fire separation.

Fire Damper

A fire Assembly that may remain in an open position and will close automatically if subjected to an increase in Temperature r actuated by a smoke detector.

Automatic-Closing Fire Assembly

a coating that , when exposed to the heat of a fire , swells to form a thick insulating layer of inert gas bubbles that retards flame spread and combustion .

Intumescent Paint

a system of thermostats or other approved sensors for detecting the presence of fire and automatically signaling an alarm.

Fire-Detection System

Classification for a fire Assembly having a ¾-hour fire-resistance rating for protecting openings in 1-hour walls, corridors, and hazardous areas.

Class C

the lowest temperature at which a combustible liquid will give off sufficient vapor to ignite momentarily when exposed to flame.

Flash Point

a standpipe containing water under pressure and fitted with fire hoses for emergency use by building occupants.

Wet Standpipe

Any floor, wall, or roof-ceiling construction having the required fire-resistance rating to confine the spread of fire.

Fire Separation

a rating of how quickly a fire can spread along the surface of an interior finish material.

Flame-Spread Rating
