Fireblock- Understanding "or approved material"
The building codes list an array of materials that can be used as a fireblock. Those three words, "or approved material" can cause a great deal of confusion. This training will help you understand the code requirements, how to review submittals and what all those fire test standards mean, even the modified versions.
