T-Barrier 1200mmx250mmx150mm Stop Sock to suite External Cavity 150mm + Party Wall Cavity 100mm

GUARDIAN4FIRE TWO WAYPARTY WALL DPC

1200mm long x 250mm wide x 110mm thick to suit a 100mm external cavity and TEE 110mm thick for a 100mm party wall cavity, T shaped in a recycled plastic CENTERD ON 337.5mm WIDE DPC

20TS - T Section Party Wall

GIS T-section party wall dpc is designed for vertical application to suit both masonry/ blockwork and masonry/ timberframe construction applications. GIS T-section party wall DPC is designed to prevent the spread of flames and smoke as well as reducing the spread of sound along the cavity at he party wall junction. GIS T-sectuon party wall is designed to meet current fire and building regulations and are rigorously tested to current accreditation and provides up to 4 hours of fire integrity.

GIS T-section party wall dpc is 1200mm long and is manufactured from Knauf ECOSE Mineral Woll and is encapsulated in recycled plastics on a dpc backing.

Technical Data

FIRE
GIS T-section party wall DPC is manufactured using Knauf ECOSE Rock slab which has a fire classification of EUROCASS A1 tested to BSEN13501-1 which is encapsulated in recycled plastic which will not add to the propagation of a fire the dpc backing is made to BS6515:84. All GIS T- section party wall DPC is tested in application to BSEN1366-4 as was BS476: Part 20 using current fire test methods.

ACOUSTICS
Gis t-section party wall DPC meets the generic requirements for the prevention of flanking noise transmission, along external walls and party wall cavities. Meeting approved document E of the building regulations.

THERMAL
GIS T-section party wall DPC have a thermal conductivity of 0.035W/mK and when fitted will provide an affective perimeter edge seal as stated in building regulations L1A and L2A as well as meeting section 6 of the scottish building standards.

COMPLIANCE
GIS T-section party wall dpc when correctly fitted meet the requirements laid out in part E of robust detail.
For Masonry in a separating wall/ party wall, E-WM 1-21 is met.
For timber frame in a separating wall/ party wall E-WT 1-4 is met and in a separating floor application E-FT 1-6 is met.
For concrete in separating floor applications E-FC 1-14 is met.

ENVIRONMENT
Guardian insulation solutions environmental policy is designed to reduce our carbon footprint. The knauf insulations ecose mineral wool slab meets these requirements. The ecose technology used is the first organic binder in the UK for mineral wool. The ECOSE slabs are free fro, CFCs HCFCs and contain no other material elements which have ozone depletion potential. Thus they exceed the requirements of BREEAM entering as classification of ZERO ODP as well as ZERO GWP.

INSTALLATION
GIS 1200mm long t section party wall dpc can be used in both brick/ block and brick/ timber frame party wall applications.
When installing they are designed to be compression fitted at the party wall junction vertically during construction. When fitting extra care must be taken to ensure all butt joints are tightly fitted, this is to maintain the fire and acoustic integrity of the product. A minimum of 50mm overlap with the party wall leaf on either side of the party wall cavity must be maintained to meet current fire and acoustic requirements.
It is critical that it fills the cavity from the rear of the outer leaf to the face of the inner leaf, any cavity insulation must be cut back at either side of the party wall in the outer cavity to allow this fitting method.
When fitting vertically the 100mm end lap must be fitted at the bottom, then as the build progresses the lap forms a continual barrier preventing the ingress of moisture.

HANDLING
They are packaged in outer polythene bags for transport and ease of handling. The product must not be stored in direct sunlight as this may cause plastic to degrade. For optimal storage, we recommend covering or storing the goods indoors if they willbe standing for an extended period before use. Local delamination from the DPC may occur during handling, this does not affect the performance of the product when fitted as it is under compression. Internal and external corners are two piece sets, price on application.
