Subject: Fire Rated Assembly Consultants >> One Hour Floor / Ceiling Assembly UL - G525 & G531

 

Gentlemen,

            I am looking for the names of Fire Assembly Consultants who can help me with a multi – floor project where the architect is asking a floor / ceiling assembly that does not comply exactly with currently published UL published assemblies.  I know that the Gypsum Association and other testing facilities have many options for floor / ceiling assemblies that will achieve the desired one hour + FIRE RATINGS >> however the architect is now introducing other components into the steel joists and concrete floor assembly to achieve better acoustical ratings.

            Therefore I need an experienced consultant to help me apply the correct >> most cost effective >> tested approved details.  

Thanks,
