Bulkhead Plates: Installation Pictorial

 

The Problem: A hospital's fire rated barrier the day before a JACHO inspection.
The Solution: A pair of bulkhead plates for (3) 2" Split Sleeve Systems.
A plate for each side of the wall that acts as the inside washer for our Split Sleeve Systems.
Apply a 3/8 bead of firestop caulk behind each plate.
Pass the cables through the slots in the Bulkhead Plate and press against the wall on each side. 

(Large Bulkhead installations require the plates to be screwed to the wall studs for support.)
Install the (3) Split Sleeves. Refer to the UL System for the rating of the wall to determine the thickness of intumescent putty and if packing material should be used in the ends of the sleeves.

(See the Split Sleeve Installation Pictorial.)
Document the retrofit with the supplied warning labels.

Now, bring on the Inspector!

It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software
