Fire Stopping
Fire stopping is a key part of our passive fire protection services. Our team will meticulously inspect building compartments, joints, pipes, and ducts to ensure they meet stringent fire safety standards taking into account essential factors such as acoustic ratings and thermal properties, contributing to a comprehensive passive fire protection system.
Fire Doors
In both residential and commercial buildings, effective fire doors play a vital role in passive fire protection and compartmentation. Beyond safeguarding essential escape routes, these doors provide occupants with vital protection against the rapid spread of smoke and fire. Despite their significance in fire protection, fire doors are often misused, underscoring the importance of regular maintenance and periodic inspections.
Cavity Barriers
When a fire occurs, gaps between walls and floors can lead to the phenomenon of ‘air buoyancy,’ which arises from variations in air temperature and facilitates the swift movement of smoke and flames across compartment walls and floors. To counter this risk, cavity barriers, constructed from fire-resistant or intumescent materials serve as a highly effective smoke control solution.
Compartmentation
A primary concern during a fire is the dissemination of smoke and harmful gases which can render escape routes ineffective. Compartmentation plays a critical role in addressing this issue, restricting airflow between doors, rooms, and roof spaces to control smoke spread and safeguard occupants so they can safely leave the building.
Ductwork & Dampers
Heating, ventilation, or air conditioning systems often cross through fire barriers to provide services throughout the building. This makes them a perfect conduit for fire and smoke. Fire dampers are placed within ductwork and ceiling cavities and in the event of a fire, they close automatically, effectively suppressing the spread of smoke and fire throughout the building.
Intumescent Solutions
Intumescent coatings play a crucial role in bolstering the fire resistance of steel structures. This involves applying a protective layer of intumescent paint to the structural steel, effectively prolonging the building’s ability to endure high temperatures.
