MONOGLASS® OVER FIREPROOFING
Fireproofing & Monoglass® Insulation – The Effective Combination
Monoglass is approved for use over fireproofing materials because it is non-combustible and will not affect the fire ratings of the fireproofing materials it is applied to. Because it is sprayed right over the fireproofing, it helps solve normally difficult design problems such as how to insulate the underside of corrugated steel decking.
Structural fireproofing and Monoglass thermal/acoustic insulation combine to achieve required fire ratings, thermal values and acoustic properties on steel or concrete structures.
|
1st Application
Structural steel and concrete beams are sprayed with cementitious fireproofing material, to provide fire-resistance ratings.
|
|
2nd Application
Monoglass is applied over fireproofing to achieve thermal and acoustic requirements, bonding easily and permanently to the fireproofing material beneath.

Fireproofing and Monoglass Thermal/Acoustic Data
- Determine fireproofing hourly rating from technical manuals to meet building codes and to establish fireproofing thickness required.
- Use the following table to establish Monoglass thickness for required thermal insulation value or noise reduction coefficient.
| Please note: The above table includes thermal value for Fireproofing and Monoglass® combined, where Fireproofing is assumed to have a K-Value of 0.611. The K-Value of Monoglass® is 0.25. |
