4 The Importance of Passive Fire Protection Facts about Fire Worldwide, a fire breaks out every 7 seconds. Annual UK Statistics: Cause of 700 deaths Business Disruption 1.3bn ( 3.4m a day) Annual costs of Arson: 2.4bn Government Reports Overall 7bn Cost to the UK Economy Fire makes up 44% of all insurance claims Source: Aviva Insurance in Hilti Technical and Engineering Support 4

5 The Importance of Passive Fire Protection Facts about Smoke Smoke travels at between 15 and 90 metres per minute 67% of fire related deaths are through smoke inhalation 44% of deaths are people who were not in the room of origin 47% of survivors could not see more than 3.5 metres.

23 About Fire Safety Law in the UK RRO (FSO) Regulatory Reform Order; Fire Safety Order 2005 The Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 (Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006) Summary>Building owner to have full fire risk assessment The enforcers can visit premises without notice and ask to see a fire risk assessment and enforce necessary works, fines and prosecution, if they feel there is a breach any areas of fire safety. CPD Seminar Feb 2011 DH 23

24 What type of buildings does the RRO & F(Scot.)A affect? Breaching fire separation (Appendix B) To ensure effective protection against fire, walls and floors providing fire separation must form a complete barrier, with an equivalent level of fire resistance provided to any openings Educational Premises Offices & Shops Healthcare Premises such as doors, ventilation ducts, pipe passages or refuse chutes. The passing of services such as heating pipes or electrical cables through fire-resisting partitions leaves gaps through which fire and smoke may spread. This should be rectified Residential Care by suitable fire stopping and there are many Transport Facilities Premises proprietary products available to suit particular types of construction. Such products should be installed by competent contractors. Factories & Warehouses Theatres & Cinemas Large Places of Assembly Apartments & Hotels CPD Seminar Feb 2011 DH 24

26 Firestop Systems are Tested on the Following Criteria Heat Flames Gases Cyclic testing Load bearing Capacity* Measures the structural stability Additional testing of the product in fire Insulation* Heat Flames Gases Explosion resistance 30 year age testing Fixing suitability Measures the ability of Acoustics an Air element sealing Heat to insulate, Load bearing capacity i.e. Movement how long it takes capabilities Flames for the non-fire side of Seismic Mold resistance Gases the element to reach Water resistance 180 Integrity* Measures the ability of a product to prevent gas & flame to pass through it in a fire *All three criteria are measured in hours and minutes.

30 Building Regulations what happens if the fire test doesn t cover the application From Appendix A 1A a qualified fire engineer can make a judgement based on test results: or assessed from test evidence against appropriate standards This judgment cannot be in the form of a fax or letter from the supplier It must include a detailed drawing and/or description of the application There must be a reference to more onerous testing. Hilti can provide that engineering judgement Hilti Technical and Engineering Support 30
