What Is Fire Compartmentation?
Fire compartmentation is a passive fire protection method that involves dividing a building into separate sections or ‘compartments’ using fire-resistant materials such as walls, floors, ceilings, doors, and seals. The aim is to contain a fire within a single area for a set period of time (typically 30, 60, or 120 minutes), preventing it from spreading rapidly throughout the building.
Proper fire compartmentation allows for:
-
Safer and faster evacuation
-
Protection of escape routes
-
Reduced risk of structural collapse
-
Minimised damage to other areas of the building
-
Easier access and control for firefighters
At Artius Fire Protection Ltd, our fire protection services are designed to comply fully with the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and the latest building regulations, giving you complete peace of mind.
