Steven Baldwin Posted September 24, 2017 Report Share Posted September 24, 2017 I need to provide a 60 min fire protection between my public house and living accomodation above. The floor between consists of 225 x 60 timber floor joists at 400 mm centers, timber tongue and groove floor boards, Lath and plaster ceiling which has at some time had timber battons and 12.5 plasterboard fixed to it . I proposed to overboard the ceiling with 12mm fireline board , coverstrips to joins and emulsion the fire board. ( would this give me 60 min protection ?? ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Sutton Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 You need to seek British Gypsum guidance (White Book) check out http://www.british-gypsum.com/products/gyproc-fireline?tab0=2. What yo are trying to do, is make do and mend, the only way to get a definitive answer, is to rip off the old and replace it with a new, BG will provide the guidance.
