Emshield DFR-FP is a UL and ULC-certified 2-hour fire-rated watertight expansion joint for use in a split-slab construction deck or floor with a 2-hour (or lower) fire rating. It is constructed as a single unit fire-rated trafficable joint system for plaza decks and split slabs designed to straddle joint gaps up to 4-inches (100mm). DFR-FP expands the use of Emshield DFR to waterproofed split-slab deck designs through the use of side flashing sheets that integrate with the deck waterproofing membrane. Emshield DFR-FP has been UL and ULC 2079 certified by Underwriters Laboratories (UL).

Installed entirely from the deck surface above, allowing for easier installation without compromising continuity of the fire-barrier from obstructions (e.g. columns, HVAC, electrical, plumbing, etc.) DFR-FP provides a watertight, clean handling, UV stable, low-temperature flexible, high-temperature-stable, traffic durable fire-rated joint seal.
