Methods to achieve code-compliant firestop systems for joints, perimeter containment, through and membrane-penetrations will be provided, and we will discuss the new ASTM firestop inspection standards.  This training will also provide an overview of draftstopping and fireblocking.  Overall, attendees will leave this program encouraged, informed and with helpful hints and techniques pertaining to their field of work.
