Fire safety is a major concern for all those involved in construction design. The causes of fire are varied and unpredictable, however what can be controlled is the effect of fire once it has started. This CPD seminar helps the specifier understand what ‘passive fire protection’ and ‘fire compartmentation’ are, how to restore the integrity of a compartment that has been breached, and to learn more about the relevant Building Regulations, codes and standards. The seminar also examines some good and bad design practices, and the consequence of both.
