ASTM E3157-23(Guide)
Standard Guide for Understanding and Using Information Related to Installation of Firestop Systems

SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
4.1 The information contained in this guide is general in nature because of: the great number of commercially available firestop systems globally; the quantity and variety of internationally published firestop system’s listings; worldwide variations in building and fire code requirements; and the many conditions and applications associated with a firestop system’s use.  
4.2 This guide provides general information and guidance that is primarily used by firestop contractors and firestop industry inspectors of a firestop system. However, this guide should also be used by others, such as architects, engineers, specifiers, etc. Some of the information referenced in this guide provides resources for additional information not contained in the manufacturer’s installations, the firestop system’s test report, and listing. Information contained in this guide also allows a single source for a general comparison of firestop materials used during the installation of firestop systems.  
4.3 This guide discusses general procedures, such as substrate cleaning and priming, as well as installation of the components of a firestop system.
Note 2: The term “substrate” has a particular meaning in engineering. A substrate is defined as the “basic surface on which a material adheres, for example, paint or laminate.”21  
4.4 This guide explains the general properties and functions of various penetrating items and firestop materials.  
4.5 This guide presents general guidelines for the application of the various materials used in the installation of a firestop system for a specific application, and environmental conditions and effects that are known to potentially affect a firestop system’s installation.  
4.6 This guide is intended to be read completely at least once, and each of the Sections 1 through 19 should be read in their entirety to avoid misunderstanding and misapplication.  
4.7 This guide may22 also provide some value to users of IMO Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) and ot...
SCOPE
1.1 This guide is a compendium of information related to installing firestop systems in fire-separating elements. This guide is intended to be used to increase industry knowledge of national and international testing requirements, code prerequisites, and other supplemental tests that may be specified, which can affect the installation and performance of firestop systems.  
1.2 This guide relates to the use of firestop systems tested, or evaluated, to Test Method E814 and other test methods addressing the same specific subject matter, such as CAN/ULC-S115; EN 1366-3; IMO Resolution MSC.307(88), FTP Code; IEEE 634; ISO 10295-1; UL 1479; etc.  
1.3 This guide also addresses the use of firestop systems tested or evaluated to Test Methods E119 or other test methods that use a firestop system as a component of a typically larger test assembly, such as AS 1530.4; BS 476-21; BS 476;3 CAN/ULC-S101; ISO 834;4 NFPA 251; UL 263; etc.  
1.4 This guide discusses the installation of firestop systems in membrane penetrations and through penetrations. The installation is typically performed by a firestop contractor (also known as a firestop installer or an installer). However, the quality of the installation is based on the information provided to the firestop contractor as well as the expertise and competence of the firestop contractor. A lack of information in the test report, listing, manufacturer’s instructions, or project documents can be the cause of a deficient installation.  
1.5 The term “firestop system” refers to and includes both a membrane-penetration firestop system and through-penetration firestop system.  
1.6 Information in this guide is applicable to firestop systems that accommodate single or multiple penetrating items.  
1.7 This guide does not address the design aspects of locating and defining the dimensions of an opening; or the method to create the opening; or the inspection of the penetrating item prior to ...

Standard Practice for On-Site Inspection of Installed Fire Resistive Joint Systems and Perimeter Fire Barriers

SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
5.1 This practice is intended to provide a standard set of guidelines that are to be followed when conducting and reporting on inspections of installed fire resistive joint systems.  
5.2 This practice is intended to provide a means to verify compliance of the installed fire resistive joint systems to the inspection documents.  
5.3 This practice is not intended to provide a basis for selecting installers or products, or both.  
5.4 This practice is not intended to establish any performance criteria of the inspected fire resistive joint systems.
SCOPE
1.1 This practice covers the establishment of procedures to inspect fire resistive joint systems, including methods for field verification and inspection.  
1.2 This practice addresses all types of fire resistive joint systems and of perimeter joint protection.
Note 1: Fire resistive joint system and joint are defined in Test Method E1966 and UL 2079.
Note 2: Perimeter joint protection is defined in Test Method E2307.
Note 3: Fire resistive joint systems include joints between two fire resistive assemblies, and perimeter joints between a fire resistive floor assembly and a non-fire-resistive wall assembly. The application of these systems are sometimes extended based on an evaluation to other types of construction.  
1.3 This practice provides methods by which qualified inspectors verify that required fire resistive joint systems on a project have been installed and that their installations are in accordance with the inspection documents.  
1.4 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.  
1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.  
1.6 The text of this standard references notes and footnotes which provide explanatory material. These notes and footnotes (excluding those in tables and figures) shall not be considered as requirements of the standard.  
1.7 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.

Standard Test Method for Measuring Relative Movement Capabilities of Through-Penetration Firestop Systems

SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
5.1 This test method is intended to standardize the cyclic movement of a through-penetration firestop system prior to a fire resistance test. If the amplitude of movement in a design application can be predicted, then the numerical values of allowable movement can be used as one data point in helping to establish suitability of the through-penetration firestop system for the given application.
Note 4: The fire resistance rating of a through-penetration firestop system is established in accordance with a relevant fire test, as acceptable to the Authority Having Jurisdiction. Examples of such tests include Test Method E814, CAN/ULC-S115, UL 1479, and ISO 10295-1.  
5.2 This test method will assist users, producers, building officials, code authorities, and others in understanding relative movement capabilities of representative test specimens of through-penetration firestop systems under standardized test conditions.  
5.3 This test method is not intended to predict the absolute movement capabilities of all likely permutations of through-penetration firestop systems under all likely types of real-life movement.  
5.4 This test method does not provide information on:  
5.4.1 Durability of the through-penetration firestop system under actual service conditions, including the effects of cycled temperature on the through-penetration firestop system;  
5.4.2 Rotational shear capabilities of the test specimen;  
5.4.3 Any other attributes of the test specimen, such as wear resistance, chemical resistance, air infiltration, water-tightness, and so forth; and  
5.4.4 Compatibility of through-penetration firestop system components and the penetrating items.  
5.5 This test method is only to be used as one element in the selection of a through-penetration firestop system for a particular application.  
5.6 This is not a fire test standard. To determine the effect of cyclic movement on the fire resistance rating of a though-penetration firestop system, conduct a fire ...
SCOPE
1.1 This test method covers testing procedures for through-penetration firestop systems. This test method is intended for the following uses:
Note 1: Refer to Test Method E814 for definition of “through-penetration firestop system.”  
1.1.1 To determine relative movement capability in two separate and distinct planes of movement for different types of through-penetration firestop systems,  
1.1.2 To standardize a comparison of movement capability by establishing standardized test conditions, in order to allow the type of through-penetration firestop system’s movement capabilities to be examined,  
1.1.3 To provide the user with information on amplitudes of relative movement between the penetrating items and the substrate (concrete-based or gypsum-based).
Note 2: Amplitude is the measure of change over a single cycle.  
1.2 This test method is intended to be used only as part of a specification or acceptance criteria due to the limited movements tested, and limited number of variables examined.  
1.3 This test method uses standardized configurations for the test specimen. Test results will not be representative of all possible through-penetration firestop systems.  
1.4 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard.  
1.5 The text of this standard references notes, comments, and footnotes which provide explanatory material. These notes, comments, and footnotes (excluding those in tables and figures) shall not be considered requirements of this standard.  
1.6 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior t...
