PASSIVE FIRE PROTECTION IN MI

Almost every year, hundreds of people die due to breaking out of the fire in homes and factories. Fire is now become a major cause to damage the resources and life. This risk to life can be reduced by using methodologies to prevent fire for example FIREPROOFING. In the dictionary, Fireproofing is defined as “not set to fire, or very hard to burn”. Protecting the resources, equipment or arrangement against the fire by using flame resistant materials to cover the structural reliability in occasion of the fire is said to be FIREPROOFING. Making the materials incombustible in any hard environmental condition is refer to as fireproofing. An item is said to be fireproof if it resists fire in a particular situation. 

Scope OF Fireproofing

Fireproofing is used in different areas of the market. For example:

·         Industries

·         Commercial areas

·         Housing construction

·         Ships, marines or offshore construction

·         Above and under the ground mining processes.

·         Aircrafts

·         Tunnel concrete walls/ ceilings

But mostly fireproofing is used in steel industries to keep structural steel even in vessel skirts and pipe bridges in an oil refinery and chemical plant.

Methodologies of fireproofing in ancient time:

Fire proofing can track its roots from ancient Roman when Nero, the emperor, partitioned the Rome and wanted to re-build the state because of fire. Nero commanded to construct the flame resistant buildings to avoid the fire in any possible condition. Fireproofing has changed into a discipline of technical engineering and described as the important application of science and engineering standards to protect people and their surrounding from critical effects of fire/flame.

In the last five to six years, awareness about flame proofing has brought to light an ultimate requirement of proper examination of materials used.

Now days, different fireproofing methods are used for fire prevention. Some of these are:

·         Sprayed fireproofing

·         Gypsum plaster

·         Fibrous plasters

·         Liquid conversion cooling

·         Cementitious plaster

·         Paint fireproofing

·         Fireproofing of textiles

·         Endothermic wraps

·         Intumescent Epoxy coatings

Besides these methods of fireproofing, resources that are naturally plan proof can also be used for fireproofing. The client should discuss the methods of fireproofing that they implement in their home, office or factory with professional fire proofer. As all the methods used for fireproofing are not applied on various types of sites.

Risk-Based Analysis

As materials are not completely fireproof, so the risk of combustion is present. Risk analysis shows that person have to sort out the nature of fire hazard and then make an evaluation of necessary time period of fire resistance for large range of machinery for example steels pressure vessels, pipe support, LPG spheres, bullets, cable trays,  heat exchangers and valves.  The location of instruments in the unit also matter.

Companies impose and maintain high standards of flame safety for buildings and homes in MI. Mostly, spray fireproofing and Fibrous plasters are used in MI but due to advancement in technologies, materials used for fireproofing changes day by day for betterment. Reliable development has been done in fire protection schemes at very low cost so that everyone can avail the facility.
