Where can you find the requirements for applying TFIFRM?

The requirements for applying TFIFRM (Thermal Fireproofing Insulation and Fire Resistance Materials) are found in the manufacturer instructions. These instructions provide specific details about the product, including application guidelines, surface preparation, thickness, curing times, and environmental conditions for application.

Manufacturers typically develop these instructions based on extensive research, testing, and compliance with industry standards. Adhering to the manufacturer's guidelines ensures that the fireproofing material performs as intended, meeting safety and regulatory requirements. Each manufacturer may have different formulations, characteristics, and application techniques, making their instructions essential for proper installation.

While building codes, state regulations, and industry guidelines may provide a framework for fire safety and protection, they do not usually delve into the minutiae of application procedures specific to TFIFRM, which is why referring directly to the manufacturer's instructions is critical for accurate and effective application.
