7 Expensive but Useless!
8 Better Late Than Never?
9 What is The True Cost?
10 Fires in Universities Oxford University fire could have been started by a student making breakfast A fire which has devastated six flats at Oxford University is believed to have been started by a student as he attempted to make breakfast. June 2008 Animal rights fanatic 'planted home-made petrol bombs at Oxford university', court hears University fire bomber convicted Mel Broughton, who has been convicted of conspiracy to commit arson and two associated offences, was not a peaceful protestor as he claimed but someone who took an active part in a fire bombing campaign at Oxford University, Said Crown Prosecution Service lawyer Paul Harrison. 13/02/2009
11 York University Fire
12 Two Important Questions Why are new buildings not always fire compliant? Why are fire compartments not always adequately maintained?
13 Less Resilience To Fire It would not be unreasonable to assume that during the past decade, our commercial building stock has become less resilient to fire and this goes some way to explaining the steep increase in fire losses. Roy Watkinson Technical & Commercial Insurance Director, AXA Insurance Source: FRM Journal, March 2011
14 Building Regulations Requirements If a fire separating element is to be effective, every joint and imperfection of fit, or opening to allow services to pass through the element, should be adequately protected by sealing or firestopping so that the fire resistance of the element is not impaired Every compartment wall and compartment floor should form a complete barrier to fire between the compartments they separate and have the appropriate fire resistance... there should be continuity at the junctions of the fire-resisting elements enclosing a compartment and any openings from one compartment to another should not present a weakness Building Regulations Approved Document B; B3 section 10
15 Approved Document B was developed for easy and forgiving masonry construction.. Traditional Build
16 Modern Build.. with modern methods of construction the room for error is small if not microscopic. Dr Jim Glockling, Technical Director, Fire Protection Association

20 Not Nearly Adequate!
21 Lack of Monitoring
22 A competitive tender issue?
23 Grudge Purchase?
24 Qualified... but not in fire stopping
25 Interface Details
26 Fire Tested Integrity
27 Poor Co-ordination
28 Irresponsibility
29 An Alternative Process Client Fire Engineer / Strategy Planning 3rd party installer with LPCB Certification cost compliance
30 Fully Compliant Passive Fire Protection... designed & specified requires: Correct products Correct installation 3 rd Party accreditation Compartmentation management To last the lifetime of a building
31 3 rd Party Accreditation The BRE Approval process involves a whole series of rigorous checks which are on-going & it is because of this assessment process that the LPCB Approval Mark is recognised worldwide as a badge of quality for Passive Fire Protection Installation.
32 Quality Assured A complete paper trail
33 Fire Walls
34 Do all Fire Risk Assessments... Newspaper had been used to fill the gaps around the pipework.
35 investigate Ceiling Voids...
36 Roof Voids...
37 and Areas of Strategic Importance?
38 Fire Doors Even the simplest design of fire door can rarely tolerate error in installation and one hours fire resistance can easily be reduced to less than ten minutes, but you won t necessarily be able to see the problem unless there is a fire. Peter Barker, Chiltern International Fire

40 Fire Door Inspection & Remediation AFTER
41 Fire Door Inspection Scheme Achievement of First FDIS Diploma Improves Service to Clients Checkmate Fire Solutions Ltd Compliance Manager Clive Reilly, seen being presented with his diploma by Gary Amer, Chief Executive of the Guild of Architectural Ironmongers, is the first industry professional to have successfully passed the FDIS Diploma in Fire Doors. The Diploma is a key part of the recently launched scheme that aims to transform knowledge and understanding about the critical role of fire doors and is believed to be the first of its kind in Europe. Says Clive: Since Checkmate introduced a service for the maintenance and management of fire doors we have been keen to have a qualification that proved our competence in this area. Taking the FDIS Diploma confirmed we knew a lot and also enabled us to rectify gaps in our knowledge, broadening our expertise, which will benefit our clients.
42 On-going Inspection & Re-Certification The LPCB Certificate states that it only remains valid providing that the passive fire protection is checked on an annual basis & any damage or defects rectified by a competent person in line with the Regulatory Reform Order 2005
43 POOR MANAGEMENT - the consequences can be tragic Owners of fire death Penhallow Hotel to be prosecuted The owners of a Newquay hotel which caught fire, resulting in three deaths, are to be prosecuted for fire safety breaches, Cornwall Council says. Sep 2010 Six killed in tower block blaze Three children and three adults have died after a fire swept through a tower block in south-east London. July 2009
44 Staying Within The Law Where necessary in order to safeguard the safety of relevant persons the responsible person must ensure that the premises and any facilities, equipment and devices provided in respect of the premises under this Order.. are subject to a suitable system of maintenance and are maintained in an efficient state, in efficient working order and in good repair. Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005
45 Fires destroy people s lives Arrests over Warwickshire warehouse fire which killed four firefighters. Feb 2011 Charges over Warwickshire firefighters' deaths Three Warwickshire fire service managers are to face charges of manslaughter by gross negligence over the deaths of four firefighters. Feb 2011
46 Efficiency savings in Universities we need to deliver efficiencies and reduce waste in public spending, delivering an additional 5 billion of efficiency savings in John Denham, Secretary of State Universities must reduce the administrative burden whilst maintaining proper accountability for the use of public funds, ensuring they make efficiency gains where possible John Selby, Higher Education Funding Council
