Direct answerFire-rated partitions — compartment walls and protected shafts (Table 11A items 4.1 to 4.3) and fire-rated enclosures (items 7.1 to 7.3) — require a valid CoC and a DoC. For FSC02, the Appropriate QP checks that wall height, framing, board layers, joints, openings and penetrations match the certified system.

Fire-rated partition FSC02 checks

  • CoC scope for wall height and fire-resistance period
  • Stud gauge, spacing and deflection head
  • Board type, layers and fixings
  • Joint treatment and staggering
  • Door and glazing openings (doors are separately certified with labels)
  • Services penetrations — see fire stopping and fire-rated collars
  • Junctions with slabs, ceilings and external walls
  • Project DoC and site photographs

Fire-rated glass partitions need the glass type, frame and maximum pane size to fall within the CoC. Enclosures to steel may alternatively be protected by an intumescent coating system.

Frequently asked questions

Do compartment walls and protected shafts require FSC02?

Compartment walls and protected shafts (Table 11A items 4.1 to 4.3) are regulated fire-rated partitions requiring a CoC and DoC, and are identified in the Annex C list for endorsement by the Appropriate QP. The installed wall, including height, framing, board layers, joints, openings and penetrations, must match the certified system.

Can a product be used if its CoC model differs from the installed model?

Generally no. The installed product must match the CoC exactly — brand, model, composition, thickness, density, configuration and manufacturer. A different model, revised build-up or alternative manufacturer needs its own CoC coverage, or a revised CoC issued by the Certification Body. The QP cannot extend a CoC’s scope by professional judgement. See CoC and DoC review.

Can a contractor substitute a different fire-rated product during construction?

Only with care. A substitute must be a regulated product with its own valid CoC covering the exact model and configuration, the required DoC or labels, and it must suit the approved fire safety design. Changes to tested assemblies, supporting structure or penetration details may require design review. PE Consultants provides product substitution review before the change is made.
