Steel Beam Fire Proofing

Steel Beam Fire Proofing

Steel Beam Fire Proofing

(OP)
Our company recently completed a fire sprinkler project in a existing nursing home. Some of the spray-on fire proofing was disturbed by attaching beam clamps to the structural steel.
The facility is fine with this, but the Engineer is looking for us to "touch-up" every where this situation occurred.
Has anyone ever encountered this before?
