Residential Steel Framing: Fire and Acoustic Details
This report investigates regulatory requirements, available test data, and typical practices relating to acoustics and fire protection of cold-formed steel framing. The intention is to give an overview of current regulations, as well as a snap shot of available fire and acoustic cold-formed steel assemblies. This document starts by providing an overview of fire and acoustic requirements of cold-formed steel assemblies and the characteristics of such assemblies as related to fire and acoustic performance. A detailed description of current building codes and building code requirements for the fire protection and acoustical insulation of cold-formed steel assemblies follows. A comprehensive list of tested fire- and sound-rated assemblies is provided. Finally, recommendations are given to direct future tests and research.
