Drywall

• 
  A typical fire problem: the measures taken by the plumbers and the drywallers are at cross-purposes.
• 
  Another set of unsealed drywall through-penetrations.
• 
  Another example: this steel sleeve, a penetrant itself, causes more problems than it solves.
• 
  Penetrants have been punched and burned through drywall, compromising its integrity.
• 
  Mechanical shaft with compromised fire-resistance rating through pipe installation.
• 
  Finished, painted, fire-resistance rated drywall assembly. A common deficiency: List ceiling tiles and find electrical and mechanical service penetrations without a firestop.
