Place Fire Dampers

Places Fire Dampers automatically in Ducts that go through a fire wall.

Fire walls are recognized by the tool as faces of a fire compartment mass. The dampers will be placed as a break into Element in the Duct.

Workflow:

  Start by drawing a 2D shape, then convert it to a form. Specify height of the form in the appropriate view.

   
Fill the BE_G Mass_type parameter for the Mass depending on the language version of your template:

“Fire compartment” – for English

“Brandcompartiment” – for Dutch

Remarks: When preparing the English version of the template, remember to preload the necessary fire damper families. Below is a list of required families, along with links for easy download:
