Direct answerFire-stopping materials, including fire-rated collars, are regulated under SCDF Fire Code 2023 Table 11A item 11 and require a valid CoC and a DoC. For FSC02, each typical penetration must fall within the certified scope — substrate, service type, pipe material and diameter, annular gap and seal depth — and match the approved fire safety design.

Why fire stopping is the most common FSC02 gap

A single project can contain hundreds of penetrations, each a small tested detail. Typical gaps include collars fitted to pipe sizes or materials outside the CoC, sealants used on substrates not tested, oversized openings, missing insulation continuity on metal pipes, and no photographic record before ceilings are closed.

Fire stopping FSC02 checks

  • CoC and appendix for each product
  • DoC for the project
  • Substrate — wall or floor type and thickness
  • Service type — plastic pipe, metal pipe, cable, duct
  • Pipe diameter and wall thickness range
  • Collar size and fixing
  • Annular gap and seal depth
  • Penetration schedule and typical details
  • Photographs before concealment

Seals must suit the element they pass through — see fire-rated partition FSC02 and fire-rated floor FSC02.

QP verification before FSC02

  1. Regulated and compliant product — the product falls within a Table 11A category and is certified for that use.
  2. Valid CoC — current, not withdrawn, suspended, terminated or superseded, verified in the Certification Body’s directory.
  3. Exact match to the CoC — brand, model, composition, thickness, configuration and manufacturer match the CoC and appendix.
  4. Representation of compliance — the DoC, serial label or certified mark required for that product is present and traceable.
  5. Correct installation — installed in accordance with the certified system and the approved fire safety design.

FSC02 endorsement is subject to review of the product documentation, certification scope, installation details and the QP’s professional assessment.

Frequently asked questions

Are fire-rated collars regulated as fire-stopping material?

Fire-rated collars used to seal pipe penetrations through fire-rated elements are generally treated as fire-stopping products under Table 11A item 11 and require a valid CoC and DoC. The collar size, pipe material, pipe diameter and substrate must fall within the certified scope.

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.

Is a fire test report the same as a CoC?

No. A fire test report records how a specimen performed in one test. A CoC is issued by an SAC-accredited Certification Body after product testing, factory assessment and the applicable surveillance regime under the SCDF Product Listing Scheme. An ordinary fire test report, reaction-to-fire classification or manufacturer’s brochure is not automatically a valid SCDF CoC.
