Fire & Finish — SFRM Bond/Density Test Plan
SFRM Bond/Density Test Plan for steel fire protection and finishing.
Fireproofing QC is destructive and cheap: a depth gauge and a pull test per protocol, logged per floor. The plan's value is timing — failures found while the spray rig is still on site cost a re-coat; found at occupancy inspection they cost scaffolding back through finished ceilings.
Formula
Note: Erection-planning estimate only. Member weights, connection capacities and tolerances for execution must come from the issued drawings, the EOR and the erection engineer — never from a generic calculator.

About Fire & Finish — SFRM Bond/Density Test Plan
Fire & Finish — SFRM Bond/Density Test Plan computes the governing relationship tests = floors × area × rate/1,000 m² live as you type. Fireproofing QC is destructive and cheap: a depth gauge and a pull test per protocol, logged per floor. The plan's value is timing — failures found while the spray rig is still on site cost a re-coat; found at occupancy inspection they cost scaffolding back through finished ceilings. Defaults are pre-filled with realistic values for this exact scenario, and the worked example substitutes your numbers step by step so the math is never a black box.
How to use Fire & Finish — SFRM Bond/Density Test Plan
- 1Enter your values — Floors sprayed, Sprayed area per floor, Thickness tests per 1,000 m², Bond tests per floor (sensible defaults are pre-filled).
- 2Read the live results: Thickness test sets, Bond tests.
- 3Check the "with your numbers" line to see tests = floors × area × rate/1,000 m² substituted step by step.
- 4Adjust inputs until the scenario matches yours, then copy or share the result.
