Hi,
A simple question.I am currently looking at a small project where the ceilings are going to be re-done with pre-insulated plasterboard.There is 12.5mm foil back already in place.There is no mention of a fire-rating for these pre-insulated plasterboards.Foil back plasterboard has a 0.5 hr fire-rating if memory serves me correct.Whenever I have done a timber ceiling there was always foil back plasterboard put on first for fire-rating purposes.I have no issue taking off the original plasterboard I am just curious if the modern plasterboard has any built in fire-rating.
Cheers,
Wex Dude.
