Lunch & Learn for architects, engineers and specifiers

Keep the steel
visible.

Invite your project team to a 45-minute working session on intumescent fire protection: which test standard your code requirement actually points to, and how thickness gets determined before anyone prices it.

No cost, no sales pitch. We reply within one business day with two or three time options.

CEMENTITIOUS - BOXED OUT 1.5 mm 58 MILS · 90 MIN Hp/A 115 W-SHAPE COLUMN · ESR-3874 TABLE 1

Same column, two approaches. Intumescent is a film measured in mils, so the section stays exposed.

An invitation to architecture and engineering firms

We run it privately for your team, virtually, and we cover lunch.

One firm per session. Your projects, your questions, your steel schedule - not a webinar with two hundred strangers on mute.

Private to your firm

Only your architects and engineers on the call. Bring the whole studio or one project team.

Virtual, 45 minutes

Zoom or Teams, your calendar. Tuesdays and Thursdays, 12 to 3 PM ET, other days on request.

Lunch on us

An Uber Eats card to every attendee before the session, so everyone orders what they want and eats during the call.

What this covers

Fire protection usually shows up late, and by then the options have narrowed.

By the time a coating gets selected, the structure is drawn, the ceiling heights are set, and someone else is choosing on price. This session is about the decisions made earlier - the ones that are still yours.

  1. OBJECTIVE 01Distinguish what ASTM E84 and ASTM E119 each measure, and identify which one a given code requirement actually calls for.
  2. OBJECTIVE 02Compare intumescent and cementitious fire protection against the constraints of a specific project: exposed structure, ceiling height, schedule, and finish.
  3. OBJECTIVE 03Locate coating thickness requirements in an ICC-ES evaluation report using section factor, and identify the special inspection requirements that apply in the field.
  4. OBJECTIVE 04Determine when an exposed wood or fabric finish requires an ASTM E84 Class A rating, and specify a clear coating that achieves it without altering the appearance of the material.

Bring a steel schedule from a current project and we'll work through it live.

Who runs it

Two people who answer the questions your spec writer will ask.

James has run FlameOFF since the first ICC-ES listing. Abby works with specifiers every day on submittals, thickness schedules and special inspection. Ask them the hard ones.
