What key components are typically included in a firestop design plan?

A firestop design plan primarily focuses on ensuring that penetrations and joints in fire-resistance-rated assemblies are properly sealed to prevent the spread of fire and smoke. Key components in a firestop design plan typically include specifications for materials and installation. This involves selecting the appropriate firestop products, such as sealants, collars, and blocks, that are suitable for the specific materials and assemblies present in the building. The installation guidelines ensure that these materials are applied correctly, adhering to relevant codes and standards.

Other options such as blueprints for fire escapes, emergency evacuation procedures, and specifications for fire alarm systems, while important in the overall safety framework of a building, do not directly address the specific requirements and components involved in firestop design. Fire escapes and evacuation procedures pertain to occupant safety during a fire incident, and fire alarm specifications are related to detection and alerting systems, rather than the containment and prevention of fire spread, which is the central focus of a firestop design plan.
