FIRE ATTENUATION SCREENS

What are radiant heat screens

Radiant heat screens function as a dual passive fire protective element. Piloted Ignition: Reduction of piloted ignition is the ability of stainless steel mesh to both reflect and absorb radiant heat, causing a significant reduction in heat flux transfer to and through window openings, thereby reducing the likelihood of spontaneous ignition of combustible materials within the building. Non Piloted Ignition: Stainless steel mesh provides an additional protective element to its passive fire protective role in providing a physical barrier that shields the building from embers, by so reducing the risk of external source ignition to combustible materials within the building.

Engineering Functions

Fire attenuation screens deliver four critical fire-engineering functions for modern construction. Boundary construction within 3 meters of the allotment. 6 meters from boundary or road. 6 meters from another building on the same allotment that is not Class 10. Protect a fire evacuation exit path or paths out of a building. The function is to prevent fire spread from an adjoining allotment boundary, between buildings on the same site, or a designated evacuation exit.
