Fire Compartmentation Surveys & Remedial Works
As part of our comprehensive Passive Fire Protection services, Firewall provides professional Fire Compartmentation Surveys for commercial, industrial and public-sector buildings throughout the UK.
Our surveys can include both non-invasive and, where required, invasive inspections to assess the condition and integrity of existing fire compartmentation and identify areas where fire resistance may have been compromised.
Our experienced surveyors inspect fire-rated walls, floors, ceilings, service penetrations, risers, voids and associated fire stopping, identifying defects, damage, unprotected openings or installations that may affect the intended performance of the fire compartment.
Following the survey, Firewall can provide a clear and detailed report identifying our findings and any recommended remedial works required to reinstate the integrity of the building's fire compartmentation.
Effective fire compartmentation is a fundamental element of passive fire protection, helping to protect occupants, escape routes and property by restricting the spread of fire and smoke throughout a building.
Fire Compartmentation Survey Reports & Recommendations.
Following a fire compartmentation survey, Firewall provides a detailed report identifying deficiencies in the building's fire-resistant construction, including walls, floors, ceilings and service penetrations.
Each identified defect is photographically recorded, individually referenced and clearly located, together with an explanation of the issue and recommendations for appropriate remedial works.
Where required, Firewall can also provide a schedule of remedial works and associated costs, allowing clients to prioritise improvements and plan the necessary fire protection measures.
Our experienced installation teams can subsequently undertake the recommended remedial works using suitable tested passive fire protection systems, providing a coordinated service from initial survey through to completion.
