When there is an oversized hole we have tested solutions to reduce the hole size, commonly referred to as a Gib Patch. The hole will be reduced to an acceptable size and the collar will be applied to the Gib.

When we have an unprotected beam working as a separation element (fire wall) and a penetration through it, It’s possible to build a plasterboard box around the penetration and treat the penetration as plasterboard wall. We refer to AS 1530-4/2005 results obtained from tests on penetrations.
