Hope that helps, John Drucker, CET Fire Protection Subcode Official Fire/Building/Electrical Inspector Fire Marshals Office Borough of Red Bank, NJ -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Ed Kramer Sent: Friday, April 09, 2010 1:41 PM To: [email protected] Subject: rated walls, doors, hardware sets Here's a general question for the IBC savvy members: If a wall is required to be 1 hr rated (or more), is it safe to assume doors in the wall will have some level of fire rating? Is it safe to assume doors in the wall will have self-closures? We often have to work with architectural plans that are very much lacking in details - to call them crappy is being kind. I usually feel confident the rated walls shown on the plan are accurate, but the door schedules (including hardware sets) are too often an architectural afterthought. Thanks in advance, Ed Kramer Littleton, CO _______________________________________________ Sprinklerforum mailing list [email protected] http://fireball.firesprinkler.org/mailman/listinfo/sprinklerforum For Technical Assistance, send an email to: [email protected] To Unsubscribe, send an email to:[email protected] (Put the word unsubscribe in the subject field) _______________________________________________ Sprinklerforum mailing list [email protected] http://fireball.firesprinkler.org/mailman/listinfo/sprinklerforum For Technical Assistance, send an email to: [email protected] To Unsubscribe, send an email to:[email protected] (Put the word unsubscribe in the subject field)
