A cap for a tubular sleeve having a cylindrical wall extending along a longitudinal axis for forming a passage through a concrete structure. The sleeve has radially extending ridges separated into segments with a channel parallel to the longitudinal axis. The channel has a circumferential width W. The ridges spaced apart a distance Z along the longitudinal axis. The sleeve having an inner diameter D. The cap has a cap element and a positioning tab. The cap element has a circular outer periphery with a flat top surface and a flange having a bottom end, and the tab extends inwardly from the bottom end and has a bottom surface that is orthogonal to the longitudinal axis. The tab has an inner surface that is inclined at an acute angle to the bottom surface. The tab has a width smaller than W and an axial length smaller than Z.

A fire protection cuff having a coat made of fire-resistant material and a strip made of intumescent material is characterized in that the coat includes a flexible mat, which is folded over around at least one of the longitudinal edges of the intumescent strip, so that the coat surrounds the intumescent strip at least on one large face and one of the two longitudinal edges.

A system has a surface intended to separate two chambers within the system. The surface has an aperture for allowing passage of at least one communication conduit. A shroud is positioned on the surface at the aperture, and has at least two portions defining a central opening to allow the communication conduit to pass through the aperture and shroud. The two portions of shroud have mating clamp ears in contact with each other. Securement members tighten the clamp ears against each other to provide a seal at an end of the shroud remote from the surface.

The present invention provides a method for producing a through hole in a floor system for pipe penetration. The method includes providing a deck system with ridge portions and valley portions; creating a hollow on the deck system; providing a ring with at least one securing ear formed on a perimeter thereof; mounting the ring onto the deck system by jointing the at least one securing ear of the ring and the at least one of the ridge portions such that the ring is fixedly received in the hollow of the deck system; and fixedly receiving a pipe casing in the ring mounted on the deck system, wherein the pipe casing defines a path for the pipe penetration. The method further includes forming a concrete layer on the deck system to obtain a composite slab.

The present invention concerns a portable building fire suppression system which allows fire-fighters to position the device within a building early on in the firefighting process. The device may use automated controls to begin fire suppression. Further, a number of electronics including lighting, smoke detection, alarms, camera, motion sensor, and the like may be included on the portion of the device inserted into the building. These electronic systems may provide vital information early in the firefighting process to inform fire fighters about conditions within the building.

A fire protection sleeve segment can be arranged for a fire protection sleeve for sealing a combustible body penetrating an opening in a wall or ceiling in the event of fire. The fire protection sleeve segment contains a first housing element and a second housing element, wherein the housing elements have a boundary wall containing a contact surface and an outer surface opposite the contact surface. The two housing elements are rigidly interconnected and arranged so as to be stepped with respect to one another. An intumescent material is applied to the contact surfaces. To form a fire protection sleeve, a plurality of fire protection sleeve segments are arranged relative to one another and interconnected such that the intumescent material applied on the contact surface of the first housing element is covered, in whole or in part, by the second housing element of the respectively adjacent fire protection sleeve segment.
