This #SafetySaturday we are looking at the FyreSHIELD PLUS! 🔥 FyreSHIELD PLUS is a proudly Australian Made and Owned 🦘 Access Panel system that has been designed and tested to be built into walls and ceilings. Ceiling systems are few and far between across the market, but the FyreSHIELD PLUS system provides an easy option for direct compliance. ✅ Innovative and patented advancements have made it possible to achieve simple and compliant fire ratings for concealed-hinge Fire Rated Access Panels like never before. No cladding, no need for historical test data – just clever, hinged, as-tested design.

✅⚙️ Trafalgar are proud to have tested intumescent FyreDAMPERs to the updated AS1530.4:2014 standard in plasterboard ceilings for applications such as downlights, ceiling mounted speakers, bathroom fan exhausts and much more! We also have a variation of the FyreDAMPER, dubbed the Ceiling Spigot Fire Damper which is shown below! These FyreDAMPERs can have a maximum internal dimension of 1180mm long x 580mm wide and a maximum internal height of 600mm high. 📏 In this test, a FyreDAMPER was installed over an air-transfer grill through a 3x16mm 2-hour plasterboard ceiling achieving -/120/120 and 60 minutes of resistance to incipient spread of fire (RISF). 🔥 For more information on our FyreDAMPER range, click here: https://hubs.ly/Q02wLYp20 #FireTestFriday #damper #TrustTrafalgar #InsistOnOrange #firesafety #protection #fireprevention #lifesafety #passive #fire #construction #building

A FREE Guide for Design and Building Practitioners 📖 Specification of Passive Fire Penetration Systems 🔥 Check it out now! Link: https://hubs.li/Q02wj5wh0 This specification guide by our very own Technical Director, John Henry, provides simple ‘compartment-by-compartment’ design rules and examples for how this can be done in a practical way to comply against the Deemed to Satisfy provisions of the National Construction Code (NCC). 📑 Traditionally, the fire stopping of service penetrations has been left to the last minute for the service trades to run around the site sealing up the holes and gaps around their services a few weeks before the occupation certificate (OC) is issued. This lack of design and planning, coupled with a focus on building certification has led to large numbers of defective installations due to a lack of understanding of the concept of the passive fire penetration system. Moving forward, the construction industry across most states and territories of Australia are introducing new legislation that requires higher levels of building design prior to the Construction Certificates (CC) being issued, and therefore building designers must start planning ahead and designing for passive fire. This guide applies to Volume 1 of the NCC2022 for all types and classes of construction but will place focus on class 2 residential projects for most of the case studies and examples.

Our SuperSTOPPER Circular is a fire, smoke and acoustic rated mixed service system that prevents air leakage and is resistant to seismic movement. 🔥 It is approved for electrical, plumbing, HVAC&R, and active fire type services in walls, floors, and ceilings. Tested to AS1530.4:2014, the SuperSTOPPER Circular can achieve FRL’s of up to 240 minutes! In fact, the 'before' image shows a 150 mm SuperSTOPPER Circular (with pair coils, power cables and CAT6 cables) going through a FyreBATT installed onto a Speed panel. The 'after' image is the same SuperSTOPPER Circular after the test has commenced. The system achieved an FRL of -/240/120.

Meet Sean McDonald, Lead Systems Engineer here at Trafalgar Group. 🔥⚙️ Sean was born in Brisbane but grew up in Cairns, and attended university in Gold Coast. Sean loves to run and has been running for about 7 years. In this period, he has run marathon distances or longer probably 10 times! He is currently training to crack a time of under 1hr at the City 2 Surf 🏃♂️ Sean is currently supervising the TFire systems team, responsible for fire testing, assessments, and launching new products (recently the Unicorn Continuous Fire Collar)! What Sean enjoys most about his work at Trafalgar is the fact he is “constantly facing new challenges; different services, walls, challenging sites, materials that behave differently in tests. I rarely do the same thing two days in a row.” 🙌 #staff #highlight #staffappreciation #thankyou #industryleader #passive #fire #TrustTrafalgar #InsistOnOrange
