How we use Medium- and high-density cementitious spray in steel buildings
World Steel coordinates sprayed fire protection with the steel: compatible primers, clean surfaces and member-by-member thickness schedules from the fire design.
- 01Specified with the structure – thickness, density and facing matched to the roof, wall and fire design.
- 02Quantities taken from the same 3D model as the steel, purlins and cladding.
- 03Packed and shipped with the steel package – one delivery schedule to site.
Applications
Where Medium- and high-density cementitious spray is used
- Exposed steel in car parks and plant rooms

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What thickness of medium- and high-density cementitious spray do I need?
It depends on the member size (section factor), the critical temperature and the required fire rating – the fire engineer or the manufacturer's tested data gives a thickness for each member.
Does World Steel supply branded products?
Yes – we supply the brand and listed system your specification or authority requires. This page describes the product type.
