Question from Mark Follett (Western Builders Inc.) at 11:35 AM on 11/19/2019
Kyle no separation is showing between the rooms/floors. We recommend Fire/Smoke Dampers. Please advise. Dampers will need to be shown with
access panels if this option is desired. Please confirm no rated wrap is required on the ducting as well.

Per the ventilation drawings issued in PR-012, the documents include all locations where fire rated penetrations are required. No additional fire
dampers are required for the conditions of multiple penetrations nor three story duct runs trigger additional wrap or dampers. the ducting carries a 1
hour rating that is equal to the rating it is penetrating.
Please see the attached response from CEC
Thank you
