What is a fire stop or smoke seal?
Fire stops (fire barriers) and smoke seals protect a specific floor or wall area against smoke or flames. As in the case of fireproofing, they are about preventing smoke and flames from entering these zones for a certain length of time.
In an office building, for instance, the emergency staircases could be equipped with a fire stop, allowing a safe evacuation of the employees. Besides, a fire stop could also be installed between a wall and a concrete slab, or around ducts or pipes passing through a wall or a floor.
