1. Wall Assembly — Min 6 in. (152 mm) thick reinforced lightweight or normal weight (100-150 pcf or 1600-2400 kg/m3) concrete. Wall may also be
constructed of any UL Classified Concrete Blocks*. Max area of opening is 73.7 sq ft (6.85 m2) with a max dimension of 104 in. (2.64 m).
See Concrete Blocks (CAZT) category in the Fire Resistance Directory for names of manufacturers.
2. Steel Duct — Max 100 in. by 100 in. (2.5 by 2.5 m) galv steel duct to be installed either concentrically or eccentrically within the firestop system.
The duct shall be constructed and reinforced in accordance with SMACNA construction standards. The space between the steel duct and
periphery of opening shall be min 0 in. (point contact) to max 2 in. (51 mm). Steel duct to be rigidly supported on both sides of the wall assembly.
2A. Through-Penetrants — Coated Ducts* — As an alternate to Item 2, rectangular steel air duct supplied coated with BW11 coating material. Max
40 by 40 in. (1.02 by 1.02 m) duct size. One duct to be installed within the firestop system with an annular space of min 0 in. (point contact) to max
2 in. (51 mm). Reinforcement stiffener or transverse joint with bolted flanges shall be located approximately at the mid depth of the annular space.
Duct to be rigidly supported on both sides of the wall assembly. Duct sections shall be assembled using bolted flanges or SMACNA approved
Transverse Joint Reinforcements.

3. Firestop System — The firestop system shall consist of the following:
A. Packing Material — (Optional, Not Shown) — Polyethylene backer rod, mineral wool batt insulation or fiberglass batt insulation friction fitted
into annular space. Packing material to be recessed from both surfaces of wall to accommodate the required thickness of fill material.
A1. Packing Material — Required as specified in Table below. Min 3-3/4 in. (95 mm) thickness of min 4 pcf (64 kg/m3) mineral wool batt
insulation firmly packed into opening as a permanent form. Packing material to be recessed from both surfaces of wall to accommodate the
required thickness of fill material.
B. Fill, Void or Cavity Material* — Sealant — Min 5/8 in. (16 mm) thickness of fill material applied within the annulus, flush with both surfaces of
wall. Min 1/4 in. (6 mm) diam bead of fill material shall be applied at the point contact location between the duct and the wall.

C. Steel Retaining Angles — Min No. 16 gauge galv steel angles sized to lap steel duct a min of 2 in. (51 mm) and to lap wall surfaces a min of 1
in. (25 mm). When max duct dimension does not exceed 48 in. and duct area does not exceed 1300 in2, angles may be min No. 18 gauge
galv steel. Angles attached to steel duct or coated duct on both sides of wall with min No. 10 by 1/2 in. (13 mm) long steel sheet metal screws
located a max of 1 in. (25 mm) from each end of duct and spaced a max of 6 in. (152 mm) OC. Steel angles are optional for those sides of
duct that do not exceed the dimension specified in Table below, dependent on packing material and annular space as specified.
* Indicates such products shall bear the UL or cUL Certification Mark for jurisdictions employing the UL or cUL Certification (such as Canada),
respectively.
