PYRO-GUARD Advantages
- Pyro-Guard trusses and roof decks often qualify a
masonry-wall building as "non-combustible" for insurance
purposes, resulting in lower lifetime insurance premiums.
- Can often be substituted for non-combustible materials
without affecting building classification.
- Often allows for an increase in square footage (and
lower insurance rates) over untreated load bearing
walls.
- Using Pyro-Guard FRTW roof decking is usually accepted
in lieu of unsightly parapet walls in multi-family
dwellings.
- Even when sprinklers are mandatory, Pyro-Guard can
further reduce fire insurance rates.
- Commonly accepted by building codes for partition
walls, storefronts, fixtures and roof construction
in shopping centers.
- Each piece bears the UL classification mark, and
is kiln dried and third party verified for quality
by Timber Products Inspection, Inc.
- Qualifies as low hygroscopic and non-corrosive, and
can be painted or stained.
