Had a great time , and learned a lot at the Advancing Construction Decarbonization conference this past week in beautiful Denver, CO. Looking for a quick way to dramatically cut the #embodiedcarbon of your building. Remove the drywall ceilings and walls. Save money, embrace the beauty of your steel structure, embrace the #GWP, and allow in the light.

#TBT from DIA. Jeppesen Terminal’s internationally recognized peaked roof, designed by Fentress Architects is reflective of snow-capped mountains and evokes the early history of Colorado when Native American teepees were located across the Great Plains. It was also one of the first truly huge projects where MONOKOTE fire protection MK-6/HY was used, with a centralized pump station and with product pumped vast distances, saving time and money. Many years later - both the airport and MK-6 are still there and still in great shape. #YieldProductionTrust #tookateam - Rick Mihevc Robert Montanaro Craig Dedrick Amal Tamim James Ellwood Paul Korenberg Arthur Evans

Several MONOKOTE fire protection products come with an extended set (ES) version. This allows the applicator to significantly reduce or eliminate time consuming pump-in/pump-out procedures, and potentially save thousands of gallons of water on project. You can increase your daily productivity rate (bags/day) , reduce waste water disposal and material scrap, and complete fireproofing jobs in less time, with the same in-place performance and fire rating performance as the regular version. https://lnkd.in/e7YvzMYu Ask your MONOKOTE fire protection reps or our Technical Managers Curt Baske or Craig Dedrick if the Extended Set Version is right for you. #YeildProductionTrust #takesateam - Rick Mihevc Robert Montanaro Tanguy Godard Todd Laidlaw

Good article from Adam M. Irons, CCM, PCS about intumescent fireproofing. Well written and accurate. There is one issue with it that we would like to comment on / clarify. Under "Benefits of Intumescent Fireproofing" it states that they are more space-efficient and aesthetically appealing. While beauty is in the eye of the beholder, intumescents should never be used in a confined space or applied to areas where something can impede the char growth. If you don't have enough space for a cementitious product such as MONOKOTE fire protection , you don't have enough room for an intumescent. As a industry rule you need 30 times the applied thickness of space around the protected member. #YieldProductionTrust.

Hey Bill McHugh and Mark St. Onge - is full scale , fully-loaded testing of passive fire protection really necessary? Look at the results below - either one IFRM supplier has a really great product compared to the rest of them or full-scale , fully loaded testing really does make a difference in terms of the final thickness of product......or maybe they just got lucky. MONOKOTE fire protection fully supports the efforts of National Fireproofing Contractors Association to have language added to the IBC that addresses this issue. 703.2.1 Tested assemblies. A fire-resistance rating of building elements, components or assemblies shall be determined by the test procedures set forth in ASTM E119 or UL 263 using loaded horizontal building elements and assemblies meeting the minimum size requirements in the standard. Too often products tested in accordance with a "modified" ASTM E119 or UL 263 fire test are being submitted and approved as code compliant, yet don't comply with the code or the standard. A "modification" to the fire-test to remove the load and using a small sample size results in passing fire tests at less thickness, causing a safety risk.

Thankfully there were no injuries reported and we 100% agree that sprinklers are needed in parking garages. We also believe that consideration should be given to requiring passive fire protection on the concrete. We hear lots of arguments against this in "that concrete doesn't burn" but not all concrete is the same ~ there are thousands of concrete mix designs and ultimately it always come down to money. PFP such as MONOKOTE fire protection Z-146T in this situation wouldn't have prevented the fire but it would have limited the damage to the concrete, allowed for faster repair while lessening the likelihood of collapse. #YieldProductionTrust Blake Mueller Rick Mihevc Bill McHugh John Dunk Thierry PERNOT
Building owners/designers/contractors, I highly recommend fire sprinklers in your parking garages. This garage did not have them and the cost to repair this garage will be far more than fire sprinkler installation. Not to mention the tenants who had their vehicles destroyed. We got the call at 4 am and our firefighters endured some punishing heat to put this fire out, protect the other cars and protect the building attached to this garage full of sleeping tenants.
