Siderise RV vertical cavity barriers for rainscreen cladding are used to full fill the void between the external envelope and internal structure, providing an effective hot smoke and fire seal.

Application

Siderise RV vertical cavity barriers for rainscreen cladding are used to full fill the void between the external envelope and internal structure.

The construction offers resistance to the passage of both smoke and fire. Additionally, by fully sealing the void, they assist ventilated façades to function by maintaining air-pressurisation compartmentation.

Significantly, their unique stonewool lamella core construction enables the vertical barriers to accommodate the serviceability movement normally associated with rainscreen façades.

Intersections between horizontal and vertical cavity barriers are simply abutted, with RFT 120/45 foil tape applied as detailed in the RV Installation Instructions. The leading edge compresses directly against the external envelope. No intumescent strip is required.

Description

Siderise RV vertical cavity barriers for rainscreen cladding applications consist of a non-combustible stonewool lamella core, with reinforced aluminium foil faces.

Siderise RV vertical cavity barriers are installed within the cavity formed between the rainscreen facade and the inner structural wall using appropriate Siderise support brackets. Brackets are available in either galvanised mild steel (G) or stainless steel (S).

The standard product length is 1200mm


Resistance to Fire - Siderise RV vertical cavity barriers have been tested in accordance with EN 1366-4: 2006+A1: 2010. The cavity barriers maintained integrity (E) and insulation (I) requirements. This is detailed in the manufacturers' technical data sheet.


The tests have been undertaken to assess the ability of the vertical-cavity barrier products to reinstate the fire resistance of a lightweight aerated concrete supporting construction. This is the standard assembly for testing such cavity barrier products as it allows the performance of the individual barrier to be classified.


Features and benefits:

  • Siderise RV Cavity Barriers provides up to 120 minutes of fire integrity/insulation. (Siderise RV-120/120).
  • Siderise RV Cavity Barriers are fully compliant and meet ASFP guidelines.
  • Siderise RV Cavity Barriers are suitable for vertical (full seal) applications.
  • Siderise RV Cavity Barriers accommodate cladding movement.
  • Siderise RV Cavity Barriers are tested to EN 1366-4.
  • Siderise RV Cavity Barriers are Third-party approved: Certifire (CF 6028), Intertek US(WHI20-32944302 ), Intertel UK(WHI-09-02-22-000001-02), IFC Certification (IFCC 1712)
  • Siderise RV Cavity Barriers have been used in several large-scale system tests such as BS 8414 (1 and 2) and NFPA 285.
