Fire-safety of movable walls

Fire-safety of movable walls
Fire ratings are always stipulated by local authorities. General ratings can be divided as follows:
- No fire-rating but fire-retardancy required. Objects with no proper fire-protection but the construction must not add fire load in the space. Many conference rooms are examples of this case.
- Fire-rate 30 minutes. Objects where movable walls form one side or both sides of the exit.
- Fire-rate 60 minutes. E.g. objects where the movable wall divides fire areas.
Fire-rating restricts the choice of panel construction.
