Special fire-resistant components in ventilation technology – duct components

Special fire-resistant components in ventilation technology are service duct components consisting mainly of a supporting tray, cladding, supply and discharge lines, electrical cables and ventilation ducts – including the appropriate fire-stopping and fire-sealing measures where required. The services may or may not be separated with mineral wool filling.

The duct components may only be used in a vertical design to prevent the spread of fire from storey to storey for the fire-resistance duration verified for the assembly as a whole.

Regulatory framework

DIBt grants national technical approvals (abZ)/general construction technique permits (aBG) for vertically arranged special components for which a fire-resistance duration for preventing the spread of fire and smoke from storey to storey is required and which are used in ventilation and/or other ductwork.

If the cavities between the services integrated into the cladding of the special components/service duct components need to be filled with mineral wool, this must be done by machine. Only companies possessing sufficient expertise in this field and using personnel trained and certified by the holder of the national technical approval/general construction technique permit may do this.

Please also refer to the relevant provisions of the federal states following MVV TB 2020/1, Sections A 2.2.1.8 (MLAR) and A 2.2.1.11 (M-LüAR).
