Primed steel , and fire-rated construction. It can be a minefield. Typically, the steel fire-tested by MONOKOTE fire protection and our competition is raw, without primer. There is only one UL approved primer for structural steel. With every other primer, some additional actions are needed. That can be as simple as confirming adhesion via a bond test, but can run to bonding agents to fully lathing the steel --> Think of the cost. 😮💨 That guidance is listed in the UL Solutions directory as well as the International Code Council IBC, and applies to all fireproofing products regardless of the results of bond tests run on primed steel. Most steel, on the interior of a building that is going to be in a conditioned space does not need to be primed. Need help with a question related to the use of primed steel in fire-rated construction, reach out to your MONOKOTE fire protection rep and we would be happy to help.

Need to patch your existing Passive Fire Protection? There is no patching compound that is universally acceptable to patch any MONOKOTE fire protection product or those from our competitors. #SprayNPray If you don't know the existing product, then please ask your manufacturer to try and identify the product that needs repair; most of them will be able to do so, and then you patch with the confidence that you have the backing of UL Solutions. Need to patch MONOKOTE fire protection MK-5, MK-6 or MK-10 - use MONOKOTE fire protection Patching Compound. https://lnkd.in/eEgwRAfR #YieldProductionTrust Philip Mancuso Rick Mihevc

This month's Modern Steel Construction is out. Lot's of good stories , and this month's quiz has several questions related to the fire protection of steel structures (MONOKOTE fire protection can help with that - but not the questions in the quiz ~ you're on your own there). Articles on pages 50 & 56 discuss speed in steel construction (MONOKOTE fire protection can definitely help with that) and the use of Environmental Product Declarations #EPD The North American steel industry is the cleanest and most energy efficient of the leading steel industries in the world. This is due to the high percentage of steel made from recycling scrap to make new steel,  and the use of domestically-sourced iron ore, as well as the increasing use of cleaner energy sources to make steel with lower emissions. #Buildwithsteel #YieldProductionTrust Rick Mihevc Galen Burrell Ahoo Malekafzali, Ph.D. American Institute of Steel Construction Charlie Carter Devin Huber, PE, PhD Caitlin C.
