In a facade assembly (14) for a building (10), with at least one facade element (16), which may be fastened to a wall or an inter-story ceiling (12) of the building (10), and with at least one fire-protection element (18), which may be mounted between the facade element (16) and the wall or the inter-story ceiling (12), the fire-protection element (18) contains an insulating layer (19) and at least one angle profile (32) with two flanges (34, 36) disposed at an angle relative to one another, wherein one of the flanges (34) of the angle profile (32) is fastened to the facade element (16) and the other flange (36) of the angle profile (32) bears on the insulating layer (19).

A joint sealing tape can be universally used for different profile dimensions, for sealing building joints, particularly for sealing them with regard to noise and/or smoke and with regard to fire. In particular, the joint sealing tape can be used for sealing a joint between a first component and a second component, having an elongated connection element and at least two sealing elements, which are positioned on the connection element at a distance from and next to one another, running in the longitudinal direction of the connection element, and wherein the connection element has a perforation.

A joint-sealing element is useful for fireproof sealing of building-structure joints, especially for fireproof sealing of a joint between a first building part and a second building part, with a carrier element and a sealing profile disposed on this carrier element, wherein the disposed sealing profile contains an intumescent material.

An inter-tenancy partitioning system installed between floor and ceiling slabs has aligned dual spaced apart ceiling and floor channels formed by channel forming members. Dual panels are supported vertically within the aligned dual ceiling and floor channels Each panel having a width less than that of each channel and the channels are spaced apart to provide a gap between the panels. The panels have a height of greater than 2800 mm and extend through a suspended ceiling to engage the respective channel forming members at the ceiling slab above the suspended ceiling. Outer vertical pieces of the channel forming members of the floor channels have a height that does not extend vertically beyond an upper surface of the adjacent floor covering.

A fire-rated receiver channel includes at least one intumescent or other fire-resistant material strip. The receiver channel can nest with a framing member, such as metal tracks, headers, header tracks, sill plates, bottom tracks, metal studs, wood studs or wall partitions, and placed at a perimeter of a wall assembly to create a fire block arrangement. In other arrangements, a track assembly includes two nested tracks, an inner track and outer track. The assembly is designed so that the outside width of the outer track is equal to or less than the outside width of the inner track to present a substantially flush external surface for attachment of exterior sheathing elements when the assembly is used in an external wall.

An approved dynamic construction is used for effectively thermally insulating and sealing of a safing slot between a floor of a building and an exterior wall construction, wherein the exterior wall construction includes a curtain wall configuration defined by an interior wall glass surface including one or more aluminum framing members, wherein the vision glass extends to the finished floor level below. The dynamic, thermally insulating and sealing system includes a first element for receiving the insulating elements and positioned in the zero spandrel area of a glass curtain wall construction including only vision glass to maintain thermally insulating and sealing of the safing slot during exposure to fire and heat as well as movement in order to maintain a complete seal extending across the safing slot.

A fireproof covered structure for covering a penetration part formed in a fireproof beam of a wooden building to make the penetration part fireproof, wherein a tubular fireproof covering material is attached to the penetration part while covering an inner peripheral surface of the penetration part. The tubular fireproof covering material is formed by stacking a plurality of gypsum board pieces cut out from commercially available gypsum boards of thicknesses of 9.5 mm to 25.5 mm, in the thickness direction and unitarily connecting the gypsum board pieces. The tubular fireproof covering material is inserted into and attached to the penetration part such that a connecting portion That connects gypsum board pieces That are adjacent in the stacking direction is disposed at a boundary portion between a structural member and a covering member of the fireproof beam, or at a portion close to the boundary portion.

A sealing tape roll comprises a sealing tape of flexible, compressible foam with at least one interior barrier layer. The sealing tape is wound up into the sealing tape roll in such a way that a top surface of one turn rests against a bottom surface of an adjacent turn of the sealing tape roll, and side surfaces of the sealing tape form end surfaces of the sealing tape roll. The sealing tape comprises a plurality of foam plies, which are arranged one above the other in a thickness direction between the bottom and top surfaces of the sealing tape. A barrier layer is between each pair of adjacent foam plies. The at least one barrier layer extends over at least 50% of the width of the sealing tape roll between the opposite end surfaces of the sealing tape roll and in a longitudinal direction of the sealing tape.

A fire-resistant strip for providing a fire-rated seal to a construction gap or joint includes an intumescent material layer configured to expand in response to a temperature above a threshold temperature and at least one heat resistant material layer made of or comprising a material having a melting temperature above the threshold temperature, such as a fiberglass material. The at least one heat resistant material layer covers the intumescent material layer. At least one adhesive layer is configured to secure the fire-resistant strip to a building structure or structures defining the construction gap or joint.

A fire prevention apparatus includes an inner pipe having multiple perforations along a length of the inner pipe. The fire prevention apparatus also includes an outer pipe surrounding the inner pipe, the outer pipe having a slit along a length of the outer pipe. The fire prevention apparatus also includes fire retardant disposed in a gap between the inner pipe and the outer pipe. The outer pipe is configured to compress when a force is applied to the outer pipe, so as to cause the fire retardant to pass through the perforations into the inner pipe.
