Dricon® FRT wood is ideal for use:
| • Where other materials would permit a fire to spread without restriction from an ignition source. |
| • In areas of construction where there is inadequate water supply or fire protection. |
| • In indoor construction staging, scaffolds, workmen's shanties, etc. during construction or repairs of expensive equipment or multi-story buildings. |
| • In areas where sprinkler systems cannot be readily installed, such as framing under raised platforms or theater stages, floor framing, walls, stud areas enclosed under roofs and framing for all types of remodeling work. |
| • In health care facilities where a versatile and economical construction system is desirable, but life safety cannot be compromised. |
| • In homes located in areas prone to wildfires or anywhere fire safety is a concern. |

Limitations: Dricon FRT wood can only be used in above-ground locations, protected from precipitation, regular condensation, or other wetting. Exposure of Dricon treated wood to these conditions will, over a period of time, reduce its fire retardance and preservative effectiveness. Dricon used as sill plate, or in contact with concrete that contacts the ground, is an approved application and does not void the warranties.
