There are a number of reasons why a client will require a steel column to be clad, to make it look good or to blend it into the background so that it does not stand out, it could be to convey services to other floors, but in this section we are looking at the structural integrity of the steelwork in the case of a fire.
In the case of a fire it is imperative that the support steelwork retains its strength for as long as possible and usually an engineer will ask for 1 or 2 hours protection for this purpose.
There are a number of solutions to this requirement, but each of them require certain information so that the correct calculations can be done to verify that the fire protection will work properly.
At Jtech Services we have many years’ experience in the supply and installation of all sorts of encasement systems from column casings and HVAC perimeter casings to low surface temperature radiator guards and pipe boxing systems.
Products Include:
Casings – External column casings, Internal column casings and Fire rated column casings
All the encasement products are available in different materials and finishes including Steel, Aluminium and Plywood to suit our client’s application whether that is either internal or external.
To ensure that everything goes as smooth as possible when the products arrive on site, we work along with our clients by assisting with site measures and undertaking training if required to help with installation. Jtech Services also offer an installation service should that be required.
Jtech has worked with many successful architectural companies, carrying out projects for Burger King, npower, Sainsbury’s, Volvo, Virgin Active, Waitrose as well as local authorities and the NHS sector.

Toughened Pipe Boxing can take a kicking In a further development of their successful Pipe Boxing systems, Jtech Services has recently
installed their heavy-duty metal ducting system at a hospital refurbishment project.
jtech manufactured and installed a radiator cover to prevent my son, 7yrs, ( who has severe special needs) from climbing on the radiator and forcing the radiator off the wall which he has done lots of times and each time caused a flood and caused the boiler pressure to malfunction. now there is a cover that he cannot climb on as it has a sloped suface, it fits flush and snug to the wall so he cant find a gap to pull at it and he can no longer access the radiator. it has a front that opens with a key for maintenance and cleaning that he cannot open . we are very pleased with it as our son can now play safely in his bedroom.jtech made our job feel very important even though it was for a private residence and not a hospital ect. which proves they care about every customer no matter how small the job, we had one person from the company who was our contact all the way through (jon) he cared alot about getting every detail right and kept us well informed every step along the process. when he came to install the cover he was very friendly and professional and did an excellent job, so glad we went with this company many thanks jtech services.
Jon at Jtech services was very helpful. Kept me well informed during the manufacture of my order and delivered the goods on time. Would recommend them without hesitation.
We felt the work undertaken by JTECH Services was to a high standard.H & S record on site was fully in keeping with all site requirements.Planning of their work schedule was excellent.The quality of the finish was to the highest standard.The workforce was friendly.polite, and punctual in attendance.The team worked throughout very adverse weather conditions to achieve the planned end date.We would recommend their services.Peter J.Koziot (Site Manager Kenyon Forge Ltd.)
