There are a number of different products and systems which can provide a fire rating to structural steel.
One of the key benefits is that intumescent coatings will expand as much as 100 times the original thickness of the material providing superior fire resistance by creating a buffer between the fire and the steel members the coating will undergo a chemical reaction and.
When subjected to high heat these coatings expand to many times their original thickness forming an insulating blanket that protects the steel member from heat.
