FIRE PROTECTION OF FRP SYSTEMS

Are you looking for a specific solution?

FIRE PROTECTION OF FRP SYSTEMS

Olympus has developed, engineered and qualified a fire protection system for FRP consolidation systems on existing floors, developed with calcium fibrosilicate panels, engineered specifically to guarantee certified fire resistance. REI 120. The system has been certified by the testing laboratories of Istituto Giordano SpA. The calcium silicate plates, light but highly resistant, they offer an effective barrier against high temperatures when combined with a specific sealing putty, protecting FRP-reinforced structures without compromising their functionality. Thanks to their high thermal stability, they maintain the mechanical properties of the reinforcement, helping to preserve the integrity of the building and the safety of its occupants.

System certified at the laboratories of Istituto Giordano SpA

This system represents a cutting-edge solution that guarantees protection, durability, and maximum efficiency. It is designed to meet the most stringent fire regulations. The OLYMPUS OLY FIRE REI 120 system is ideal for public, commercial, industrial, and residential buildings, offering a reliable passive fire protection solution. The modular design allows for seamless integration with existing reinforcement systems, ensuring quick and easy installation without compromising aesthetics or structural functionality. Test setup of the FRP FIRE PROTECTION REI 120 system The OLY FIRE REI 120 fire protection system is certified at the Istituto Giordano SpA testing laboratories by conducting a test campaign on a full-scale floor reinforced with carbon sheets protected by calcium silicate plates. The test was performed at an ambient temperature of 10°C To carry out the test, an experimental oven with an opening on the upper side, internally lined with bricks and equipped with: 2 support elements placed on each transverse edge of the oven at a distance of 4.2m; 8 diesel-fired double-flame burners; 2 fireplaces; Pressure detectors; Loading equipment (2 hydraulic jacks with maximum load 295KN each); Data acquisition system.

Fire Protection for FRP systems

a) Application of OLY RESIN BASE DB using a short-haired roller or brush b) Application of OLY RESIN 10 HTG using a metal spatula on the first layer of primer while it is still fresh c) Application of OLY RESIN 10 HTG using a metal spatula on the previously cut face of the sheet to be glued. d) Manually arrange the OLY PLATE CARBO sheet previously cut to size according to the design scheme, making it adhere to the support by applying pressure with the OLY ROLL roller
