• Tectonic Head Track is easily integrated into either timber or steel 92mm wall framing constructions
• designed to allow for building deflection and inter-floor movement caused by seismic activity and dead/live loading

• For full install instructions please refer to installation manual

• The Tectonic Headtrack has been fire tested according to AS 1530.4-2014 Methods for Fire Test on Building Materials

Acoustic: 

An acoustic assessment was carried out on a wall system with a Tectonic Headtrack to evaluate the performance in a partition system. A high-density passive fire protection strip was fitted to both sides of the track in the specially designed recess. Sound intensity measurement showed that on a STC 52 wall there was no reduction in the overall acoustic performance of the partition. Where a fire rating is not required, a high mass filler strip can also be used, of between 4 – 5 kg m². Test report available on request.

Fire testing: 

The Tectonic Headtrack is defined as a control joint, therefore, when it is used in a fire rated system, the correct passive fire protecting must be employed. Tectonic Headtrack has been fire tested to with AS 1530.4-2014 Methods for Fire Test on Building Materials. Although the detailing is up to the fire engineer, we recommend two passive fire protection systems: RyanFire Batt 502 and RyanFire Graphite Strap.
