Description
Trafalgar Corex Riser Shaft Systems provide a fire-rated solution for vertical service risers in multi-level buildings, ensuring safe and compliant service distribution between floors.
Fire-rated riser shafts are essential for maintaining fire compartmentation, allowing services to pass vertically through a building without compromising the Fire Resistance Level (FRL) of each floor.
Why Use Fire-Rated Riser Shafts?
Riser shafts are commonly used to:
- Run services vertically between levels
- Reduce the need for repeated floor-to-floor fire stopping
- Maintain continuous fire-rated separation between compartments
Constructing shafts externally (from outside the shaft) also improves installation efficiency and accessibility.
Corex Riser Shaft Solution
Trafalgar Corex fire-rated board is designed to form durable, space-efficient riser shaft enclosures.
Key benefits include:
- Fire-tested shaft system for vertical applications
- Suitable for external shaft construction
- Supports integrated service penetrations
- Lightweight and easy to install
Corex provides a practical and efficient alternative to traditional shaft construction methods.
