Did You Know…The #1 reason the specs are not upheld is because no one requires it.  The #2 reason?  Trades self-performing the work.  Firestopping and Barrier Management is a highly specialized trade best performed by a Specialty Firestop Installation Contractor who knows all the nuances of this highly technical trade.  FCIA Members know it best!

Have you heard?  FCIA and Life Safety Digest are partnering with ICC this year!

Properly installed firestop systems save lives, and no one knows this better than Specialty Firestop Installation Contractors.
