Fire Containment Curtain Wall System Aluminum Framed Curtain Wall Systems UL System Description Design Criteria CW-S-2001 or CW-S-2002 The following checklist contains important details that must be included in a Fire Containment System used in an aluminum-framed curtain wall system with aluminum,glass or stone spandrel panels.(See specific test design for details.) 2 1 5 4 3 4 glass, aluminum or stone stiff-back angle steel angle clips THERMAFIBER FIRESPAN insulation pinned to mullion covers 1" FIRECODE Compound 4" thick THERMAFIBER safing insulation supported by Z-clips THERMAFIBER FIRESPAN insulation pinned to angle clips aluminium curtain wall system 37 USG Fire Stop Systems 3 2 1 5 1. Foil-Faced THERMAFIBER Curtain Wall or FIRESPAN Insulation is mechanically attached to mullions and transoms using impaling pins, screws or other positive mechanical attachment. 2. Exposed aluminum mullions must be protected with Foil-Faced THERMAFIBER Curtain Wall or FIRESPAN Insulation mullion covers. 3. Safing insulation is compression fit (minimum 1/2� wider than opening) into safe-off area (2�- 8�) and supported with safing “Z” clips. 4. A light steel angle or channel is placed horizontally at the safing line,attached to vertical mullions— either within the insulation at a horizontal splice,or behind the insulation and attached to vertical mullions.This detail prevents bowing of curtain wall insulation due to the compression fit of the safing insulation. 5. Minimium 1� thick FIRECODE Compound installed over forming material (Safing Insulation) to form a tight smoke seal and effective thermal barrier.
