Absolute Fire Solution provides comprehensive structural protection solutions designed to enhance the fire resistance of essential building elements. Our specialised techniques and materials protect load-bearing components—such as beams, columns, and floors—ensuring the building’s stability and structural integrity during a fire.
In a fire, structural elements are at risk of weakening or collapsing under extreme heat, which can compromise the entire building. Structural protection acts as a safeguard, extending the fire resistance of these key components. This additional fire resistance time can prevent catastrophic failures, allowing occupants more time to evacuate and providing emergency responders with a safer environment to control the fire. Implementing robust structural protection also ensures that buildings comply with Australian Standards and National Construction Code (NCC) requirements, protecting assets, lives, and property.
Structural protection involves the application of various fire-resistant materials—such as fireproof boards, vermiculite sprays, and intumescent coatings—on key structural components. These materials act as a thermal barrier, preventing structural elements from reaching critical temperatures. By doing so, they maintain the load-bearing capacity of the building even in intense heat, ensuring resilience and compliance with fire safety standards.
Our structured approach to structural protection is tailored to each project to ensure safety, compliance, and optimal fire resistance:
Comprehensive evaluation of structural elements to determine areas that need fire protection and the level of resistance required.
Choosing the most effective fire-resistant materials based on the structure’s specifications and fire resistance goals.
Preparing surfaces to enhance the adhesion and effectiveness of the fire-resistant materials.
Installing fireproof boards, coatings, or sprays in layers to achieve the desired fire resistance, following regulatory and manufacturer guidelines.
Performing thorough inspections to verify the quality and compliance of the work, followed by documentation and certification of the protection systems.
Ensure the safety and resilience of your building’s structural elements with Absolute Fire Solution’s structural protection services. Contact us today to discuss your fire safety requirements or to arrange a consultation.
Structural protection involves applying fire-resistant materials to critical building components, enhancing their ability to withstand high temperatures during a fire and reducing the risk of structural collapse.
Common materials include fireproof boards, intumescent coatings, and vermiculite sprays, each offering varying levels of fire resistance to protect structural elements effectively.
Depending on the materials used and the thickness applied, structural protection can offer fire resistance from 30 minutes up to four hours, meeting the specific fire safety requirements of each project.
Yes, our solutions can be applied to both new and existing buildings, allowing for enhanced fire resistance even in pre-built structures.
Structural protection is essential in commercial, industrial, high-rise, and public infrastructure buildings where maintaining structural integrity during a fire is critical.
