When it comes to protecting structures from fire hazards, nothing is more important than proper fireproofing inspections. At Toronto Industrial Painting, we specialize in ensuring that fireproofing materials are applied correctly and perform as intended. Fireproofing plays a critical role in safeguarding buildings by delaying heat transfer during a fire, which prevents structural collapse and reduces damage.
With decades of experience in the coating and fireproofing industry, we understand the importance of precision and compliance. Our team of NACE Level 3 Certified professionals uses advanced techniques and tools to conduct thorough inspections. Whether you’re working on a commercial or industrial project, we provide the expertise needed to ensure your fireproofing meets the highest standards. From material application to final testing, we leave nothing to chance.
What Is Spray-Applied Fireproofing?
Spray-applied fireproofing, also known as Sprayed Fire-Resistive Material (SFRM), involves applying fire-resistant materials to structural elements such as beams, columns, and ceilings. This passive fire protection method insulates structural components, delaying heat transfer during a fire and preserving the integrity of the structure. Common types of SFRM include cementitious and mineral-fiber-based materials, each offering distinct fire-resistive qualities.
Our Fireproofing Inspection Process
Our technicians collaborate closely with fireproofing subcontractors to confirm designated testing areas. These are determined based on the project’s fireproofing plan.
We inspect the application to ensure fireproofing materials cover all structural elements evenly. This uniform coverage is critical for effective fire resistance.
Using depth gauges, we measure the thickness of fireproofing materials in the required areas. These measurements verify compliance with specifications.
We perform density and adhesion tests to confirm the material’s composition and ensure it adheres properly to the surface.
Samples of fireproofing material are collected, labeled, and sent to our lab for detailed analysis. This includes tests for density, adhesion, and fire resistance.
After the inspection, we provide a comprehensive report. It contains all findings and outlines any required corrections.
