Party Wall Head Cap

The Mayplas PARTY WALL HEAD System is intended to provide fire protection compartmentation at the party wall junction above a twin spandrel panel for both masonry and timber frame applications.

The Party Wall Head System comprises of two components:

1. The Party Wall Head Cap which is fitted over the entire width of the spandrel panels but under the breather membrane.
2. The Tile Batten Barrier which is fitted over the Party Wall Head Cap, into which the counter battens are fitted.

To ensure the reported and tested fire resistance performance both components must be installed as per Mayplas’ instruction.

Mayplas' Party Head Wall system is designed to address the Building Regulations requirement to maintain the continuity of fire resistance between a compartment party wall and the underside of the roof covering or deck.

The Party Wall Head Cap and the Tile Batten Barrier both consist of stone mineral wool of differing thicknesses enclosed in a coloured polythene.
