Passive Fire Stopping for
Cross Laminated Timber Floors

Timber floors have undergone a modern renaissance in the construction industry in a new form of thick cross-lamiated timber beams called CLT or mass timber. These sustainably sourced materials are being used in the Australian building industry due to their environmental sustainability, acoustic and fire-resistant properties. This page lists the tested passive fire penetration systems currently available to maintain the fire resistance level (FRL) of service penetrations through these timber floor systems.

Passive Fire Stopping Systems for
Cross Laminated Timber Floors

We can currently offer cavity barrier solutions for use at the slab edge with timber constructions as shown below, to comply with C1.13 of the NCC. We also have a range of fire stopping solutions for service penetrations through timber floors, this currently only applies to certain brands of CLT construction, however there is always more testing being done at Trafalgar– contact the technical team for assistance with fire engineering and site specific fire testing requirements ([email protected]).
