GA-600-2018 Fire Resistance and Sound Control Design Manual, Gypsum Systems

The Fire Resistance and Sound Control Design Manual is among the best organized and easiest to use of the fire design reference manuals. The systems in GA-600 utilize gypsum panel products to provide designs for fire-resistant walls, partitions, floor-ceilings, roof-ceilings, columns, beams, girders, and even trusses. Builders, specifiers, architects, code officials, fire service and insurance personnel rely on GA-600 for fire-resistance and sound control information.
GA-600 is referenced by the International Building Code, and The National Fire Codes, also known as NFPA 5000. Many state and local jurisdictions in the US and Canada also rely on GA-600 as a source document for fire-resistance and sound-control rated designs.
