Iran National Building Code Compliance for Fire Rated Glass in Madan Projects
Madan’s construction sector must strictly adhere to Mabhas 3 for fire protection and Mabhas 20 for gas and plumbing systems. These regulations require fire-rated barriers in high-risk zones such as petrochemical storage areas, boiler rooms, and multi-story commercial blocks. Antifires’ fire rated glass systems are designed to comply with these codes, offering certified performance that supports building permit approvals. Key compliance features include:
- Integrity (E) ratings from 60 to 120 minutes, preventing flame and hot gas penetration.
- Thermal insulation (I) ratings up to 120 minutes, limiting heat transfer to the unexposed side.
- Use of intumescent gel layers that expand under heat to maintain barrier integrity.
- Frames constructed from G.M.S. hollow steel sections with ceramic wool seals for enhanced fire resistance.
For Madan’s industrial and commercial projects, these systems ensure that egress routes and compartment walls remain effective during a fire event, meeting the strictest local inspection standards.
Fire Rated Glass Integrity and Thermal Insulation Grades for Madan’s Climate
Antifires fire rated glass systems are engineered to meet the 60- to 120-minute fire resistance ratings mandated by the Iranian National Building Code. For Madan’s climate, which experiences both high temperatures and humidity variations, the glass composition is critical. The 10mm FPOS configuration (3mm float glass + 4mm fire gel + 3mm float glass) provides integrity up to 135 minutes, while the 28mm EI60 panel (6mm + 5.5mm gel + 5mm + 5.5mm gel + 6mm) offers both integrity (66 min) and insulation (64 min). These ratings are verified under controlled test conditions, including furnace temperatures monitored by Type K thermocouples and ambient conditions ranging from 27°C to 36°C. The thermal insulation performance is defined by a maximum temperature rise of 180°C on the unexposed side, ensuring that adjacent materials and occupants are protected. For Madan’s commercial partitions, the 21mm FPOS glass (integrity 120 min, insulation 30 min) is a common choice, balancing transparency with robust fire protection.
Madan Industrial and Commercial Building Applications for Fire Rated Glass Systems
In Madan’s growing industrial zones, Antifires fire rated glass is specified for control room viewing panels and factory fire doors, meeting the high smoke and flame containment demands of petrochemical and manufacturing facilities. These applications require systems that can withstand extreme conditions, such as the 50mm EI120 ultra-high-performance glass, which provides both integrity and insulation for up to 120 minutes. The installation process involves:
- Frame assembly using G.M.S. hollow steel sections with 12mm to 15mm fire-rated insulation boards.
- Sealing with ceramic wool (3mm to 6mm, density 210 kg/m³) and intumescent fire seals (20mm × 4mm).
- Fixing with M6 or M8 anchor bolts at 300mm to 600mm spacing to ensure structural stability.
- Expansion gaps of 3mm to 5mm filled with ceramic fiber to accommodate thermal movement.
These specifications ensure that control room viewing panels and factory fire doors maintain their fire resistance during a fire, preventing the spread of flames and smoke in critical areas.
