00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:05,600
The commercial construction industry is
2
00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:07,720
booming and they're seemingly no end
3
00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:10,480
in sight. Construction of large buildings
4
00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:13,240
and facilities such as manufacturing and
5
00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:15,560
processing plants, stadiums and
6
00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:17,920
entertainment venues, and other high rise
7
00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:20,680
buildings introduces complex and
8
00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:22,640
unique challenges for the owners and
9
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:24,960
constructors tasked with building them,
10
00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:27,840
including the application of necessary
11
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:29,880
Fire Protection. To protect the steel
12
00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:31,920
structure in the event of a fire, t
13
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:34,880
raditional field applied installation of
14
00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:36,920
fire protection materials disrupts
15
00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:38,960
construction trades by requiring
16
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:41,840
preparation, application, curing
17
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:44,640
and cleanup on the job site. Exposure
18
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:46,400
to unpredictable weather conditions
19
00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:48,880
impacts dry times, resulting in schedule
20
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:51,120
delays and added project costs.
21
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:53,800
However, there is a better way to
22
00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:56,640
fireproof your steel. Shop applied
23
00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:59,000
intumescent fireproof coatings can
24
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:01,600
enhance both safety and quality by
25
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:04,520
reducing potential risk. Following the
26
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:06,960
application of Sherwin-Williams Firetex
27
00:01:06,960 --> 00:01:09,320
intumescent coating, which is engineered
28
00:01:09,320 --> 00:01:10,840
to withstand severe operating
29
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:12,800
environments, physical demands of
30
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,000
transportation and construction, the
31
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,280
fireproofed steel is delivered to the
32
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,160
job site ready for assembly. This
33
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:22,960
process not only reduces site congestion
34
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:25,200
and increases site safety, but
35
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,360
accelerates construction schedules by
36
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:29,800
requiring fewer tradespeople and on-site
37
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,400
equipment, lower rental fees and
38
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:34,800
boosting productivity. By
39
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:37,120
adopting shop applied fireproofing,
40
00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:39,760
construction teams can achieve increased
41
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:42,600
safety on the project site, reduction of
42
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,360
job site insurance costs, reduction of
43
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:47,760
field applied coating disruptions and
44
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,320
reduction of waste, saving millions of
45
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:52,400
dollars and thousands of hours.
46
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:56,160
Save time and money and create a safer,
47
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:59,280
faster, simpler construction process by
48
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:01,920
utilizing shop applied fireproofing on
49
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:02,960
your next project.
