GA-600-2024 Fire Resistance and Sound Control Design Manual Gypsum Systems
Since 1973, model building codes such as the IBC and the NEC have referenced the GA-600 Fire Resistance and Sound Control Design Manual as a primary source of fire resistant and sound control rated designs.
The 2024 edition contains nearly 800 fire- and sound-rated systems for:
- Walls and interior partitions
- Shaft walls and exterior walls
- Area separation fire walls
- Floor-ceiling and roof-ceiling systems
- Horizontal membrane systems
- Column, beam, girder, and truss protection systems
The acoustical information needs of designers and specifiers are addressed through an introductory section on sound that outlines general principles of acoustics and terminology and explanatory notes specific to acoustical design. For the first time, Outdoor-Indoor Transmission Class (OITC) is listed on generic systems.
To maintain industry-wide quality assurance standards for gypsum panels defined in this Manual as “type X,” the Gypsum Association requires that all companies listing proprietary tests or systems, or relying on the generic systems in this Manual, shall subscribe to an on-going third-party, in-plant product inspection and labeling service. Additionally, each member company makes annual written certification to the Gypsum Association that its products manufactured for use in systems listed in this manual continue to be inspected and labeled by an independent third-party testing service.
