 protection is one of the most common ways to form fire protection in conju
 nction with to the existing construction element. It does not require any 
 means to trigger the system to perform the fire protection function. By us
 ing fire protection product or system\, it helps to form compartmentation 
 either horizontally or vertically to contain toxic smoke or fire from one 
 compartment to another. It also helps to protect structural element so tha
 t the structural remain safe in their position. It provides a safe environ
 ment for the occupant and rescue personnel. All systems must be tested acc
 ording to local requirements before they could be launched into the market
 . For those variation from the test configuration\, assessment by testing 
 lab would be required. In the market\, the most common forms of passive fi
 re protection are fire resistant board\, fire spray\, fire stopping materi
 al or fire glazing to perform different fire protection aspects. Normally\
 , fire resistant board can form vertical compartmentation such as partitio
 n\, smoke barrier \, spandrel while horizontal compartment includes ceilin
 g \, enclosure on services . This fire resistant board also form smoke ext
 raction ductwork or ventilation ductwork enclosure\, wall or slab fire per
 formance upgrading. Meanwhile\, intumescent coating or cementitious spray 
 are normally used for steel structure protection\, wall or slab upgrading 
 or some even use it as ductwork protection. For gap and holes in construct
 ion element\, fire stopping material is an effective means to ensure the c
 omplete protection of the construction element. For fire resistant glazing
 \, it is for door or vertical or some even for horizontal compartmentation
 .\n\nPassive fire protection or proactive fire protection are normally wor
 k together with active fire protection so as to well protect occupant and 
 fire safety personnel. Though there are number of systems in the market to
  serve the proactive fire protection aspect\, the correct use of this syst
 em is a prerequisite for the system to perform its anticipated function ef
 fectively.\n\nEvent Date: 5 March 2021\nEvent Time: 18:30 – 20:00\nCPD H
 ours: 1.5\nFee: Free of Charge\nSpeaker\nMr. Raymond Man is the Area Manag
 er of Promat International (Asia Pacific) Limited and has been serving the
  industry more than 20 years and specializes in developing passive fire pr
 otection products and systems for the construction industry in Hong Kong. 
 Being an Area Manager for Promat International (Asia Pacific) Ltd\, he has
  devoted his time in developing fire resistant material such as fire prote
 ction board\, fire spray coating and fire stopping materials\, complying l
 ocal standard or international standard\, which has been successfully adop
 ted in most prestigious projects such as airport development\, MTR\, gover
 nment or commercial development and MiC etc. in Hong Kong.\nRegistration &
