Fire-Rated Joint & Penetration Affidavit
Certification that fire-rated materials and assemblies protecting building penetrations and joints comply with Florida Building Code and approved testing standards.
What this form is
This affidavit certifies that all penetrations through fire-resistance rated barriers—from pipes, ducts, cables, and similar equipment—have been sealed with approved fire-rated materials meeting ASTM E814, UL 1479, or equivalent standards. It also confirms that fire-resistant joints in walls, floors, and roof assemblies meet ASTM E1966 or UL 2079 standards, and that exterior curtain wall voids are sealed per ASTM E2307. The affidavit must be signed by a qualifying agent and notarized to verify compliance with Florida Building Code requirements.
Who needs it
General contractors, mechanical engineers, or construction project managers certifying that fire-rated building systems meet code during new construction or renovation projects.
Why it needs a notary
This affidavit requires notarization because it is a sworn statement in which the qualifying agent certifies under oath that all fire-rated systems comply with Florida Building Code and approved testing standards.
