EMSHIELD is a family of UL 2079 fire-rated,
multi-function, single-install expansion joint products to meet
evolving building science.
With EMSHIELD, EMSEAL has
built the fire rating into the joint.
These single install products
eliminate the need for fire-blankets, mineral wools, and fire-caulks.
The EMSHIELD family of
products is in use in new
and retrofit joint applications on
facilities
worldwide.
Why EMSHIELD?
The role of floors and walls
goes far beyond just separating spaces.
Exterior walls are now a
vital part of the energy performance plan for structures.
Interior walls and floors are
a vital part of the life-safety and interior environmental controls of the
structure.
Structural expansion joints
and other component joints are gaps in wall and floor assemblies.
The EMSHIELD product line
provides all of the performance expectations of the wall or floor assembly
in a single installation.
EMSHIELD
eliminates the need for additional fire blankets, mineral wools, liquid
sealants, cover plates, or other fire stopping materials.
INDEPENDENT
TESTING and CERTIFICATION:
Only UL 2079 tests
expansion joint movement (cycling expansion and contraction) during
fire-rating testing. This is crucial because expansion joints move. Non-UL
tests do not combine movement and fire blocking and therefore do not
adequately test the integrity of the expansion joint in simulated real world
conditions. Demand UL/ULC UL 2079
testing and certification in any life-safety application where an expansion
joint needs to be fire-rated.

Summary Sheet
Design/System/Construction/Assembly
Usage
This material has been tested to UL/ULC 2079 and is manufactured
under UL’s Follow-Up Service. The material is being supplied as a
fire-rated component of a wall or floor assembly. It has been tested
to UL 2079 in assemblies as depicted in EMSEAL’s various listings in
the UL
Online Certifications Directory. Use of this material in
assembly configurations other than depicted in the named UL listings
will not encumber or lower the resistance of the deck or wall
assembly but is done so at the designers’ discretion and
responsibility for designing substrates as part of a fire rated
assembly that meet applicable standards for the project. Similarly,
the published information in the UL Listings cannot always address
every construction nuance encountered in the field. Authorities
Having Jurisdiction should be consulted in all cases as to the
particular requirements covering the installation and use of UL
Listed or Classified products or materials. Authorities Having
Jurisdiction should be consulted before and during construction to ensure that
specific adjacent substrates and assemblies are detailed and
constructed to meet local fire-rating requirements.
