Yoshino Fire Resistant Column Encasement System ZC-1 ZC-2 ZC-3

The fire resistant column encasement system incorporating the fire resistant Tiger Board·Type Z plasterboard

[Recommended Applications]

Structural columns in steel structure buildings (office buildings, hotels, housing complex, large-scale or small-scale shops, factories, warehouses)

[Features]

Simple structure:
Fire resistant Tiger Board·Type Z plasterboards are screw-attached to a steel framings.
Excellent workability:
The construction work for encasing columns and interior finish can be carried out by the same builders or constructors.
Dry construction system - stable qualities, easy work, short term work
Surface can be decorated with paint or wallpaper. - This leads to reduction of total cost.
Minimize effects on sound insulation performance:
When using the system with sound insulation walls, effects on sound insulation performance can be minimized.
