Fire Compartmentation Services

WHAT IS IT?

A compartmentation survey evaluates a building's compartmentation for its effectiveness in suppressing smoke and fires and safeguarding escape routes. A property must undergo a fire compartmentation survey; it is required by law, under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. To meet the fire safety criteria for your structure, we undertake fire compartmentation surveys.

Fire Compartmentation Survey

Following a fire risk assessment that reveals numerous breaches in fire compartment walls, ceilings, and floors, you can be advised to have a fire compartmentation survey.

In an attempt to limit the spread of fire and smoke in the case of an emergency, a fire compartmentation survey evaluates the value and potential of a property's current fire compartment walls, layout, and surroundings.

WHAT DOES IT INCLUDE?

With our company, we will examine roof spaces, floor voids, behind boxing, and other areas during a fire compartmentation survey. In essence, a fire compartmentation survey will identify any area into which a fire could spread, and the results will include recommendations for fire protection, or in more serious cases, mandatory guidelines that must be followed by law to keep your property or business in compliance with fire safety laws.

Within our service we guarantee 100% project completion satisfaction, wide range of consultancy services and cost effective/efficient services.

IMPORTANCE OF PASSIVE FIRE PROTECTION SERVICES

Measures for passive fire protection can prevent the spread of fire and so save lives. If a fire does start, it should be mostly controlled in a compartment by passive methods, allowing everybody around to flee the area and depart the building.

Passive fire protection techniques, when included into the building, guarantee that there are safe exits by shielding stairwells and other passageways from advancing fire and smoke. Occupants of a building can safely escape in the event of a fire by carefully designing structural passive fire protection and putting the right measures in place in key locations.

The top objective in a fire is saving lives, which is accomplished by stopping the flames and smoke from spreading. Cavity barriers, penetration sealing, and fire compounding are examples of passive fire protection techniques that all work together to stop the spread of fire and smoke. Building compartments, which are simply established within buildings to keep fire in one compartment, are another crucial component of passive fire prevention. Without passive fire protection, buildings can burn extremely quickly and cause catastrophic damage to the structure and occupants.

Building structural integrity and vital structural members can be preserved using passive fire protection.
