Jal Public Schools will receive Competitive Sealed Proposals for General Construction Work for the Jal Indoor Athletic Field project, located at 398 East Panther, Jal, New Mexico 88252. SCOPE/APPLICATION A. Provide installed firestop protects that limit the spread of fire, heat, smoke, and gasses through otherwise unprotected openings in rated assemblies, including walls, partitions, floors, roof/ceilings, and similar locations restoring the integrity of the fire rated construction to its original fire rating. B. Provide firestop systems listed for the specific combination of fire rated construction, type of penetrating item, annular space requirements, and fire rating, and the following criteria: 1. F-Rating: Equal to or greater than the fire-resistance rating of the assembly in which the firestopping will be installed. 2. T-Rating: In habitable areas where penetrating items are exposed to potential contact with materials on fire side(s) of rated assembly, T-rating must equal its F rating. 3. L-Rating: L-rating of 1 cfm per linear foot maximum at ambient temperatures. 4. Wall Penetrations: Systems must be symmetrical, with the same rating from both sides of the wall. 5. Testing: Determine ratings in accordance with ASTM E814 or UL 1479. C. Provide firestopping systems listed for construction gaps per the specific combination of fire-rated construction type, configuration, gap dimensions, and fire rating, and the following criteria: 1. Fire resistance rating must be equal to or greater than that of the assembly in which it is to be installed. 2. Movement capability must be appropriate to the potential movement of the gap, demonstrated by testing in accordance with ASTM E1399 for minimum of 500 cycles at 10 cycles per minute. 3. L-Rating: L-rating of 1 cfm per linear foot maximum.
