B. Wall Penetration Framing

Combustible Wall Penetration

Frame a hole in a combustible wall for an interior wall shield firestop, (Figure 6.2) whenever a wall is penetrated. Use same size framing materials as those used in the wall construction. The wall shield firestop maintains minimum clearances and prevents cold air infiltration.

Non-Combustible Wall Penetration

If the hole being penetrated is surrounded by noncombus- tible materials such as concrete, a hole with diameter one inch greater than the pipe is acceptable.

Whenever a non-combustible wall is penetrated, the wall shield firestop is only required on one side and no heat shield is necessary.

If your local inspector requires the wall shield firestop on both sides, then both wall shield firestops must have a heat shield attached to them.
