4 GENERAL BUILDING DESCRIPTION 5.0 Other Relevant Information 5.1 Detail: N/A 6.0 Relevant Fire Safety Legislation 6.1 Primary statutory provisions etc: Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, referred Official Guidance & related British Standards/Euro Norms 6.2 Enforced by: Kent Fire & Rescue Service 6.3 Other legislation significant to fire safety Fire Safety (Employees' Capabilities) (England) Regulations 2010 provisions in this building: 6.4 Enforced by: Kent Fire & Rescue Service

5 The following is based on BS 9999 concepts and principles, which may be used in conjunction with official guidance in assessing risks. Categories relevant to the building are highlighted. Assessment of risk is on a "probable" basis, recognising the degree to which this Fire Risk Assessment is based on sampling; undetected risks may exist. Occupant risk categories Risk category Description Comments A Occupants who are awake and Local and other staff; students familiar with the building B Occupants who are awake and Visitors unfamiliar with the building C Occupants who are likely to be asleep: Ci long-term individual occupancy Cii long-term managed occupancy Ciii short-term occupancy D Occupants receiving medical care E Occupants in transit Fire growth rate(s) Category Fire growth rate Typical fire growth parameter, kj/s3 1 Slow Medium Most locations 3 Fast Ultra-fast Locations (where specific) & categories Risk profiles: Range A2 to B2 Management level therefore required: 2 1 = fully proactive; optimally staffed, controlled & resourced etc. See BS 9999:2008 section = reliably reactive; compliant with legislation & direct requirements ( 3 = N/A, less than compliant with legislation ) Environmental risks Fire-fighting water runoff and temporary release of combustion products to atmosphere only; no other environmental impact likely Heritage aspects Building is of some historical importance. Business continuity (University) Considerable effect on University as a whole.

6 Business continuity (department) Serious effect.

7 FIRE HAZARDS INDE DETAIL ES NO N/A COMMENTS, CONTROL MEASURES REQUIRED ETC. FURTHER COMMENTS, DETAIL, CLARIFICATION ETC 7.0 Electrical Sources of Ignition Continue to maintain/encourage safe separation distance of ½ metre between appliances and combustible materials, to ensure that sources of heat do not arise from faulty or overloaded electrical equipment, to ensure that all electrical fuses and circuit breakers etc are of the correct rating and suitable for the purpose, and to switch equipment off at the end of the working day. 7.1 Reasonable measures taken to prevent fires of electrical origin? 7.2 Fixed installation periodically inspected and tested? Portable appliance testing carried out? Suitable policy regarding use of personal electrical appliances? Suitable limitation of trailing leads and adaptors? Continue to ensure PAT and fixed installation testing is carried out regularly. 8.0 Smoking 8.1, 2 Reasonable measures taken to prevent fires as a result of smoking? Prohibited where appropriate? Arrangements for smokers? No evidence of breaches? Ensure University smoking policy continues to be publicised and enforced insofar as possible. 9.0 Arson 9.1, 2 Does basic security against arson by outsiders appear reasonable? Absence of fire load available for ignition by outsiders? (Proximity to or presence within building) 10.0 Portable Heaters & Heating Installations 10.1 Is the use of portable heaters avoided as far as practicable? 10.2 If portable heaters are used: is the use of the more hazardous type (e.g. radiant bar fires or lpg appliances) avoided? Are suitable measures taken to minimize the hazard of ignition of combustible materials? 10.3 Are fixed heating installations subject to regular maintenance? 11.0 Cooking 11.1 Are reasonable measures taken to prevent fires as a result of cooking? Is all essential maintenance up to date and recorded? 11.2 Are filters changed and ductwork cleaned regularly? Are suitable extinguishing appliances available? 12.0 Lightning 12.1 Does the building have a lightning protection system? Except as below. Provide wet chemical fire extinguisher at the rear exit from the kitchen (requirement of previous fire risk assessments not yet actioned).

8 FIRE HAZARDS 13.0 Housekeeping 13.1 Is the standard of housekeeping adequate? Continue to ensure that housekeeping programme continues to include prompt removal of combustible materials and waste Are combustible materials separated from ignition sources? 13.3 Is there an avoidance of unnecessary accumulation of combustible materials or waste? Continue to maintain safe separation distance of ½ metre between appliances and combustible materials throughout building (including e.g. kitchen store; electrical panels & lighting; readily combustible items such as cartons of potato crisps). Waste compound is approximately 3m from the building (less than official guidance suggests) and secure; risk appears tolerable Is there appropriate storage of combustible materials? 13.5 Is there avoidance of inappropriate storage of combustible materials? N (1) Combustible displays/materials in the staircase/entrance must be strictly limited to small quantities on the windowsill only. Other items must be prohibited at all times. (2) The coat stands seen on the staircase landing must never be never used in that location, i.e. always moved into a room first - strict requirement at all times. (See also 17.3.) Note - an arsonist started a fire amongst clothing in a cloakroom on the Canterbury campus in PVC pull-up banner at the foot of the stairs is inherently flame retardant, so tolerable. General note: escape routes should be maintained as fire-sterile as possible; this is especially critical (a) in staircases and (b) where there is no alternative direction of escape; BOTH conditions apply in this instance Outside Contractor, Building Works and Maintenance Hazards 14.1 Is there satisfactory control over works carried out in the building by maintenance personnel and outside contractors? Appropriate control (including Permits To work where appropriate) administered by Estates. Local departments should however where appropriate ensure that contractors are briefed on, and accounted for under, building Fire Emergency Plan (also that contractors' dangerous substances are known & logged - see 15). 14.2, 3 Are adequate fire safety conditions imposed on outside contractors? As Dangerous Substances 15.1 Have the hazardous properties of dangerous substances been considered? If relevant, has a risk assessment been carried out according to the Dangerous Substances and Explosive Atmospheres Regulations 2002? 15.2 Is there adequate information on safety provided by the supplier on any relevant safety data sheet? Nil in normal running - see also Continue to ensure that any dangerous substances temporarily introduced (e.g. by contractors) are known and logged, that appropriate controls are in place, and that all relevant information can be made immediately available to the Fire & Rescue Service in the event of an emergency Has account been taken regarding: the special, technical and organisational measures and the substances used and their possible interactions. the amount of the substance involved where the work will involve more than one dangerous substance, the risk presented by such substances in combination

9 FIRE HAZARDS the arrangements for the safe handling, storage and transport of dangerous substances and of waste containing dangerous substances any other measures introduced as a result of the RRO 15.4 Are there safe systems of work for maintenance, where there is the potential for a high level of risk? 15.5 Are sufficient control measures in place to counter the likelihood that an explosive atmosphere will occur and its persistence including adjacent areas? 15.6 Are sufficient control measures in place to counter the likelihood that ignition sources, including electrostatic discharges, will be present and become active and effective 15.7 Has account been taken regarding the scale of the anticipated effects? 15.8 Is sufficient additional safety information available to enable the assessment to be completed? 16.0 Other Significant Risks 16.1 Are there other significant ignition sources N present? 16.2 Are there other significant fuels present? N

Specified occupancy numbers (as per 2.1) must not be exceeded at any time. This is especially critical on the first floor since there is only a single direction of escape. In view of risks present, the maximum occupancy of the Board Room has been extended from the normal limit of 60 to 70, but the storey total capacity limit must still not be exceeded. N Repair crashbar of kitchen rear fire exit (damaged, difficult to open). Management must continue to ensure that the rear/alternative exit doors from the café dining area are immediately available for escape (unlocked from the inside) at all times when persons are present. N Main entrance doors are reported as being (a) provided with battery backup and suitably maintained, and (b) linked to the fire alarm system and automatically opened on activation vii Are there reasonable travel distances where there is a single direction of travel? 17.2 viii Are there reasonable travel distances where there is an alternative means of escape? 17.2 ix Is there suitable protection of escape routes? ~ Gaps around some fire doors are excessive and should be corrected.

See suppl As far as can be reasonably ascertained, are fire dampers provided as necessary to prevent critical means of escape against passage of fire, smoke and combustion products in the early stages of a fire??? (1) Café staff must ensure that the automatic fire shutter is able to descend fully at all times. (2) Fire stopping of holes, gaps, service penetrations etc through fire resisting construction, and fire integrity of voids, could not be verified visually and should preferably be inspected by a competent body. (2) has been transferred to SHEU/Estates fire safety planning spreadsheet Escape Lighting 19.1 Is a reasonable standard of escape lighting provided? Subject to ongoing verification by Estates; should be assessed for current compliance when the building is next refurbished Fire Safety Signs and Notices 20.1 Does the building have a reasonable standard of fire safety signs and notices?

16 MANAGING FIRE SAFET 30.0 Behavioural Aspects Is there evidence from previous fire drills and other emergencies indicating that some occupants may be unaware, unwilling or fail to 30.1 evacuate? (Aside from disability-related) Is there evidence of disregard of fire safety provisions amongst building occupancy and/or 30.2 management? Is there evidence of significant human 30.3 interference with fire safety provisions? N N N

17 INDE DETAIL DESCRIPTION 31.0 Fire Strategy - building design/layout 31.1 The building consists of one fire compartment on the first floor, two on the ground floor (cafe dining area separated from kitchen area), plus a protected staircase and entrance lobby The evacuation strategy is simultaneous and immediate for the entire building and all occupants except those tasked with coordinating the evacuation The building is well provided with access routes for firefighting by the Fire & Rescue Service - a main access road and two dedicated fire roads provide approach on three sides of the building. A fire hydrant is located near the Giliingham building on land probably contolled by the University of Greenwich Fire Strategy - systems 32.1 The fire alarm system provides for manual operation and/or automatic detection in order to give sufficiently early warning of fire to all occupants. Various alarm-linked devices (automatic opening of sliding door at main entrance; automated fire door between entrance lobby and cafe) support the safe use of escape routes by occupants and the tenable use of escape routes by firefighters Fire Strategy - particular risks 33.1 Fire loading in the café kitchen is considered normal for such a facility, and in the remainder of the building is predominantly low (at most times) Particular attention should be drawn to ensuring that requirements at 2.1, 13.2, 13.4, 17.1, 17.2ii, 17.3 and 25.8 are upheld at all times Various persons with disabilities may be present at any time. Some of these must be regarded as potentially at significant enhanced risk due to their inability to perceive or respond to the alarm signal, or inability to self-evacuate. Standard University procedures are in place to plan and facilitate their safe evacuation.

18 This simple risk level estimator is based on a more general health and safety risk level estimator in BS Potential consequences of fire Slight harm Moderate harm Extreme harm Fire hazard Low Trivial OR tolerable risk * Tolerable risk Moderate risk Medium Tolerable risk Moderate risk Substantial risk High Moderate risk Substantial risk Intolerable risk * at discretion of Fire Risk Assessor Taking into account the fire prevention measures observed at the time of this risk assessment, it is considered that the hazard from fire (probability of ignition) at this building is: Low / highly unlikely Medium / unlikely - following completion of recommendations of this fire risk assessment High / likely Taking into account the nature of the building and the occupants, as well as the fire protection and procedural arrangements observed at the time of this risk assessment, it is considered that the consequences for life safety in the event of fire would be: Slight harm - following completion of recommendations of this fire risk assessment Moderate harm Extreme harm In this context, a definition of the above terms is as follows: Slight harm: Outbreak of fire unlikely to result in serious injury or death of any occupant (other than an occupant sleeping in a bedroom in which a fire occurs). Moderate harm: Outbreak of fire could result in injury of one or more occupants, but it is unlikely to involve multiple fatalities. Extreme harm: Significant potential for serious injury or death of one or more occupants. Accordingly, it is considered that the risk to life from fire at this building is: Trivial Tolerable - following completion of recommendations of this fire risk assessment Moderate Substantial

19 Intolerable A suitable risk-based control plan should involve effort and urgency that is proportional to risk. The following risk-based control plan is based on one advocated by BS 8800 for general health and safety risks: Trivial Tolerable Moderate Risk Level Action and Timescale No action is required and no additional detailed records need be kept. No major additional controls required. However, there may be a need for consideration of improvements that involve minor or limited cost, and various corrective actions may be required. It is essential that efforts are made to reduce the risk. Risk reduction measures should be implemented within a defined time period. Where moderate risk is associated with consequences that constitute extreme harm, further assessment may be required to establish more precisely the likelihood of harm as a basis for determining the priority for improved control measures. Substantial Intolerable Considerable resources may have to be allocated to reduce the risk. If the building is unoccupied, it should not be occupied until the risk has been reduced. If the building is occupied, urgent action should be taken. Building (or relevant area) should not be occupied until the risk is reduced. Any significant change, occurrence, finding or development should be reported immediately to the University s Safety, Health & Environment Unit so that mitigating action can be taken and this Fire Risk Assessment reviewed and updated.

20 ACTION PLAN ORGANISATION: University of Kent ASSESSOR: Andrew Briggs BUILDING: Rochester DATE: 4th May 2017 ACTION PLAN It is considered that the following recommendations should be implemented in order to reduce fire risk to, or maintain it at, the following level: TOLERABLE Note - only remedial/salient items appear below.
