What are flame shields?

What will be an ideal response?


Flame shields are metal barriers that deflect flames and reflect heat away from exterior structural steel members. The installation of ceilings that provide needed fire protection for floors and roofs constitutes another procedure. Designs depend on different situations, but plastered ceilings, fire-rated dropped ceilings, acoustic tiles of various types, and drop-in ceiling panels all provide various degrees of fire protection.
