3.0 DESIGN BASIS

Fire resistance of a material is defined by fire rating, evaluated through a fire test based on
applied thickness and time taken to reach the defined critical steel temperature. Fire rating
adopted in the present standard is based on UL-1709 rapid rise fire tests of protection materials
for structural steel, conducted by Underwriters Laboratory, USA. In this test, fire resistance of a
material is evaluated on a W10x49 steel column as per UL-1709 fire curve and fire rating is
published in a UL design number under XR category for thickness and time. In addition to the
fire rating, under this test, material for exterior use is also evaluated for accelerated ageing, high
humidity, salt spray, wet-freeze-dry cycling, acid spray, solvent spray etc.

3.1 Fireproofing Thickness

Thickness of fireproof coating to be applied shall be based on the following:

a) Type-I : In-situ cement concrete for application up to 1.8m from grade level for steel
structures shall be applied with minimum 65mm thickness.

b) Type-II : Structural steel members such as column, beam etc. which shall be protected for 2
hours from reaching critical temperature 538°C, shall be applied with vermiculite
based lightweight cementitious fireproof of thickness corresponding to 2 hours
fire rating as per respective UL design number under UL-1709 (XR category)
subject to a minimum of 30mm.

c) Type-III : For equipment skirts/ saddles/ supports (which shall be protected for 2 hours from
reaching critical temperature 427°C), 2 hours fire rating as per UL design is not
adequate as the UL-1709 test is based on 538°C critical temperature. Therefore for
the required fire protection from reaching 427°C, higher thickness shall be
necessary. For this, fireproof thickness corresponding to 3 hours fire rating as per
respective UL design number under UL-1709 (XR category) shall be adopted
subject to a minimum of 30mm.
