Manufacturer's Product Description

Fire-resistant systems create enhanced protection between townhouse units with shared walls.

Overview

Fire-resistant systems create enhanced protection between townhouse units with shared walls.
Area Separation Wall Systems are non-load bearing, structurally independent panels that can protect townhouse units with common walls from fire-related damages. The System is thinner and at least 50% lighter than comparable masonry separation walls, making installation faster and easier.

MAIN FEATURES
Area Separation Wall Systems are installed during the framing process to ensure a quicker construction process with fewer scheduling disruption.
3Ѕ-inch thick panels are thinner and 50% lighter than competitive masonry separation walls
Non-load bearing and structurally independent panels are installed along the property line between adjacent units
Gypsum panel construction
Aluminum breakaway clips burn off in fires, allowing the the system to detach on the fire side, while the clips on the non-fire side remain intact and support the system
"Frame-as-you-go" installation ensures simple, seamless construction process
