Description

Kemwell PFPisa non-combustible gypsum board for applicationswhere superior fire performance and innovative solutions are required, such as structural steel protection, shaft walls, partitions, and ceiling linings.

A building with a steel frame system should withstand fire, without losing its integrity during the fire, at least for long enough to evacuate people from the building. To achieve this, the load-bearing steel columns and beams must maintain their integrity at high temperatures for long periods without losing their carrying capacity and integrity. Steel encased with KemwellCorex A1can maintain their load-bearing capacity for between 15 and 240 minutes.

Steel does not contribute to the spread of fire. During a fire, it fulfils its load-bearing capacity up to a certain temperature accepted in standards. The temperature at which its load-bearing capacity starts to decline is known as its critical temperature. Design in steel structures is carried out in accordance with the load-bearing capacity of each different type of steel at room temperature. A critical temperature is selected for beams and columns in accordance with the type, purpose, and the load rate of the building. This critical temperature is accepted to be 550C in columns and 620C in beams.When steel members are within the compartment line, for compartmentation using KemwellCorex A1board, please consult the Kemwell Technical department.

The core of KemwellCorex A1is reinforced with special additives to enhance fire resistance. Both sides of KemwellCorex A1are covered with a completely non-flammable fibreglass mat, meaning the board is classified as A1 non-combustible in accordance with EN 13501-1.

Applications:Kemwell Corex A1 is a A1 non-combustible gypsum board for applications where superior fire performance is required.
