The role of fire retardant coating in steel structure space frame engineering

2022-07-08

What are the functions of using fire retardant coatings in steel structure space frame projects? There are certain risks in each of our usual construction operations, so we must find ways to avoid these problems. Just like in the construction of steel structure space frame that we are familiar with, the builders took into account to avoid fire accidents, so they applied fire-resistant paint on the surface of the product. The following SAFS steel structure will introduce the construction of fire-resistant paint to this product. So let’s find out what it does.

  1. Extend the fire protection time of the steel structure space frame: apply fire-resistant paint on its surface. In case of fire, the non-combustibility and low thermal conductivity of the coating itself form a fire-resistant and heat-insulating protective layer, which improves the fire-resistant limit of the product. After the fire retardant coating of the product is sprayed on the surface of the steel member, in case of fire, it relies on the non-combustibility and low thermal conductivity of the coating itself to form a fire-resistant and heat-insulating protective layer, which effectively improves the fire-resistant limit of the product, and the time can reach 3 hours.
  2. Make the steel structure space framehealthy and environmentally friendly: Health and environmental protection is an eternal theme no matter what field it is in. It has no corrosion to steel, no chemical reaction with any anti-corrosion primer, no irritating odor, and light coating quality (structural load weight). It is relatively light), the unit coating area is large, no smoke is generated in case of fire, no harmful gas is released, etc., and it is not harmful to the human body.
  3. Good prospects: With the rapid development of the construction industry, various steel structure space frame buildings have sprung up, and the demand for fireproof coatings is also increasing year by year. Under such a prospect, the development prospects of the product’s fire retardant coatings will also get better and better.

 

The above is about the advantages of fire retardant coatings in steel structure space frame engineering. First, it can prolong the fire protection time of the product. Second, it is healthy and environmentally friendly, which will not pollute the product and the environment, damage the product, and then have a good market prospect. Having this coating is nothing more than solving the problem of the product being prone to fire, reducing the probability of product fire, and helping us solve a major problem.
