What is passive fire protection?
Passive fire protection is essential in ensuring the safety of a building. It works by dividing a building into compartments, aiming to prevent a fire from spreading for as long as possible to ensure the safe escape of a building’s occupants, and to salvage as much of the building as possible. Fire-resistant barriers, which can be installed in walls, ceilings and floors, have three main functions:
- To resist the structure collapsing
- To block the spread of smoke and flames for varying lengths of time
- To insulate against heat conduction
