Fire Strategy
Sprinklers can be both mandatory and compensatory.
Where fire sprinklers are proposed as an alternative means of meeting building regulations, building control will need to see that the submission provides at least an equivalent level of fire safety to traditional measures. Indeed, it is in the architect’s professional interest to substantiate the safety of his or her design.coming soon.
Gaining Approval
The route to gaining approval is likely to be via the submission of a fire engineered strategy within the discipline of BS 7974. As a separate service, Homesafe can provide fire engineers to work with clients on their proposed developments, and to draw up a robust package of measures to fire safety engineer the building. We can also work alongside other nominated fire engineers.
