ABSTRACT:
Fireproofing of I-beams in building structures is necessary to prevent the loss of strength in the event of a fire. Gypsum board liners for elevator shafts and the like rest in runners attached to the I-beams. Proper placement of the runners is especially critical in the construction of elevator shafts but the correct location of the runners may not be known until after the I-beams have been fireproofed. The furring clip disclosed herein snaps onto the bottom flange of an I-beam and is fireproofed along with the beam. The ceiling runner may be screw attached to the furring clip after the hoistway rails in the elevator shaft are in place.
