Better Spanning Distances
ECO Tunneling’s engineered solutions allow maximum spanning capability, while simultaneously addressing dead load, structural requirements, seismic concerns, and material deflection.
Fire Subframing
Fire Subframing Systems
for Tunnel Construction
ECO Tunneling is the leading supplier of integrated system solutions for Aestuver® fire protection products in North America. We offer full-service support for designers: from planning and design-assist to installation and beyond. With our fire-rated substructure assemblies paired with high-performance Aestuver® fire protection boards, we provide architects, engineers, and wall consultants a turnkey solution fire protection, safety, and performance.
Engineered
Connections at wall brackets, profiles, and panel fasteners are engineered to limit panel stresses associated with structural and seismic movements.
Compliant
Our fire subframing components and systems are designed to both meet and exceed structural and fire-performance standards.
Optimized
Our solutions maximize spanning capability, while addressing dead load, structural requirements, seismic concerns, and material deflection.
Wall Brackets and Profiles - In Stock & Ready
Our Sigma stainless steel wall brackets and profile components have a low thermal conductivity which decreases thermal bridging.
Available in both vertical and horizontal designs Sigma brackets are available in multiple sizes to create various cavity depths. The number of fasteners back into the substructure will be optimized based on load requirements and back-up wall type.
Sigma+ brackets allow more fastener points and can be used in combination with standard Sigma brackets to address the fire panel dead loads.
Our subframing components (wall brackets, profile rails, and fasteners) are in stock and ready to be deployed for your next tunnel application.

Advantages of Fire Subframing
The Cost-Effective Subframing
Our wall brackets are easy to install and are more cost-effective in labor man-hours, allowing materials to be rapidly set – especially when backup walls are not plumb or true. With our wall brackets, labor time can be cut in half.
Lifetime Material Consistency
Our subframing components do not become brittle over time like fiber-glass or plastic products. For the life of tunnel panels, our wall brackets and profiles have the stainless steel advantage.
Versatile Wall Bracket Sizes
Shallow or deep, our Sigma and Alpha wall brackets can accommodate the design requirements of the tunnel’s cavity depth. Sigma and Alpha V brackets are available in 12 sizes to accommodate depths of 1.38” to 10.04”. Alpha H brackets are available in 8 sizes to accommodate depths of 1.38” to 9.25”.
