Fire Safety in Small and Medium Places of Assembly. (20-300 people) “The passing of services such as heating pipes, electrical cables & beverage Pythons through fire-resisting partitions leaves gaps through which fire and smoke may spread. This should be rectified by suitable fire stopping.” share your experiences today #BevExpo2016

Passive Fire Protection Passive fire protection is a vital component of any fire safety strategy. It is built into the structure of a building to safeguard people’s lives and limit the financial impact of damage to buildings and their contents. It does this by: Protecting escape routes for essential means of escape. Protecting the building structure thereby ensuring its sustainability. Limiting the spread of fire and smoke by containing it in a single compartment . share your experiences today #BevExpo2016

Compartmentation In Kitchens, Cellars and escape routes all walls and floors will all require compartmentation. share your experiences today #BevExpo2016

Compartmentation Failure share your experiences today #BevExpo2016

Why is Firestopping important? 47% of survivors caught in a fire could not see more than 12 feet (3.6 m) 75% of all fire deaths are caused by smoke inhalation. 57% of people killed in fires are not in the room of the fire’s origin. Question: A square room 20ft x 20ft x 20ft has a pencil hole between 2 compartments. How long will it take for the smoke to fill the room to a thickness such that you cannot see your hands 18 inches in front of you? 3 minutes 40 seconds Smoke travels 120-420 feet per minute (36 – 128 m/min), under fire conditions share your experiences today #BevExpo2016

Examples of Firestopping Incorrectly installed fire protection measures will lead to compartmentation Failure. Ensuring your premises are compliant is your responsibility. share your experiences today #BevExpo2016
