INSTALLATION AND INSPECTION The inspection of curtain wall firestops is not specifically addressed in the NBC 2016 or IBC 2015 code. As a rule, these are “listed” systems and therefore must be installed in accordance with their listing and the manufacturer’s installation instructions. Code users may want to be aware of the ASTM E 2393 standard, Standard Practice for On-Site Inspection of Installed Fire-resistive Joint Systems and Perimeter Fire Barriers. 167
