Specify from the steel schedule
Provide beam or column type, section geometry and exposed perimeter. A single project may need multiple thicknesses for different steel sections.
Passive fire protection
Fire-protective coatings
Coating-based fire protection for steel beams, columns and architectural structures.
Discuss This Material
Material Overview
Protection that follows the steel.
For exposed steelwork, the coating is part of a layered protection system: prepared substrate, compatible primer, fire-protective layer and any specified topcoat. Start with the member schedule and the intended fire-resistance period, then establish the documented coating build-up for the project.
Specification & Selection
The Details That
Shape Your Specification.
Product-family selection guidance. Final supply specifications and tested properties are agreed for the exact grade in its quotation and technical documents.
| Parameter | Selection information |
|---|---|
| Product family | Fire-protective coating for structural steel enquiries |
| Application substrate | Steel beams, columns and other documented steel profiles |
| Product form | Liquid coating in sealed pails; exact formulation by selected grade |
| Visual finish | Pale coated-steel appearance shown in the product concept |
| Member data | Profile type, section dimensions, exposed faces and section factor |
| Film thickness | Dry-film schedule derived from the applicable tested design |
| Primer / topcoat | Use compatible products accepted for the selected coating system |
| Application method | Spray, brush or roller only where the selected TDS permits |
| Environment | Identify internal / external exposure, humidity and service conditions |
| Quantity basis | Steel surface area in m², with member schedule and wastage allowance |
Grade-Specific Evidence
Performance is documented.
Measured values and classifications are not inferred from these illustrations. Request the following for the proposed product:
- Fire-resistance design and thickness tables
- Density, volume solids and consumption
- Drying / recoating conditions, VOC and storage life
Application Perspective
Large-span steel structures
Coordinate preparation and inspection
Agree substrate preparation, primer compatibility, permitted application conditions and thickness inspection with the responsible project team. Product-specific instructions control the work.
Build a realistic supply brief
Separate net coated area from the final purchase quantity. Confirm solids content, consumption, practical losses, pack weight and storage conditions for the exact grade.
Practical Questions
Before You Order.
Useful answers for a better material enquiry.
What fire-resistance period can the coating achieve?
A fire-resistance period is established for a documented combination of steel member, coating product and thickness. Request the matching report and thickness schedule for your design.
Can I use the same thickness on every beam?
Required thickness can vary with member geometry, exposure and design requirements. Use the applicable documented schedule rather than a universal number.
How do I calculate the purchase quantity?
Start with the steel surface area and the agreed film thickness. Use the selected grade’s consumption data and an agreed allowance for application losses.
