FIRE AND COLD-FORMED STEEL DESIGN WEBINAR
Fire Resistance of Wall, Floor & Ceiling Systems
Presented by Kyle Flondor USG Corporation
October 10, 2019 - 3:00 pm Eastern Standard Time
The presentation will begin with a review of the standards used to test both wall and floor/ceiling assemblies. Special attention will be given to factors that affect the design of systems with cold-formed steel, and some comparisons will be made to wood-framed systems. Several UL-certified fire designs will be described that showcase how structural factors can affect fire design.
