The FCIA Firestop Manual of Practice (MOP) is the firestop industry's handbook of accepted firestop knowledge, used by contractors, architects, engineers, manufacturers, building officials and fire marshals in North America and beyond.

The MOP is also used as the reference document for the Firestop Exam for Designated Responsible Individuals (DRI-FM) from FM 4991, Standard for the Approval of Firestop Contractors and the UL - ULC Qualified Firestop Contractor Program (DRI-UL) and also the International Accreditation Services IAS AC 291 for Firestop Inspection Agencies.

Plus, the MOP is a great education tool for anyone who wants to know more about Firestopping.  it is a great reference tool.
