Structural fire protection

When a fire breaks out, high temperatures can affect the properties and load-bearing capacity of the elements that make up a building's structure.

Structural fire protection systems aim to delay the temperature rise of these elements and help them maintain, for the time required, the performance levels set out in the project.

This type of protection can be applied to different structural elements, particularly steel structures, using systems specifically designed and tested to provide a given level of fire resistance.

Depending on the project, different solutions may be used, such as intumescent paints, sprayed mortars, boards and other protection systems.

Sercoin studies the characteristics of the structure and the requirements of the project to determine the most suitable solution and carry out the work needed to protect it.
