Fire-Rated Drywall University of Alberta Farm Edmonton: your questions answered

My University of Alberta Farm garage ceiling has board but the joints are open. Is that a problem?

Usually yes. Untaped joints are one of the most common reasons a garage separation is not complete, because the board looks installed. Often the fix is finishing the joints and sealing penetrations rather than replacing the ceiling.

How do I know which rated assembly my University of Alberta Farm project needs?

It comes from your drawings or from the building official at permit stage, not from us and not from the board supplier. We build to the assembly you have been given, and if what is specified does not match what is on site we will tell you before boarding.

Does the rated wall have to go above the ceiling?

Yes. A separation that stops at a suspended ceiling is not a separation — fire and smoke go over it. The wall runs to the structure above and is sealed at both ends. It is the detail most often missed in conversions.

Can you finish the fire-rated board too?

Yes — your University of Alberta Farm separation passes code and looks properly finished, ready for paint.

Can you finish over rated board so it looks like the rest of the room?

Yes. The rated joint treatment comes first because it is part of the assembly, then the visible finish is taken to whatever level suits the room. A University of Alberta Farm garage ceiling and a living room do not need the same finish level.

What if someone cuts into it later?

That is the risk — a fan, a light or a duct added later can quietly undo the assembly. We photograph the rated work before covering it so there is a record of what is behind the finish for whoever works on the house next.
