Fire Compartmentation

ICE BT provide comprehensive Fire Compartmentation installations in all types of properties for commercial organisations across the South and South West of England, but also cater nationally.

Fire compartmentation is a crucial element of passive fire protection for any organisation. Fire compartmentation involves subdividing buildings into smaller, manageable areas in order to contain a fire (and smoke) in the event of an outbreak.

Although important, a thorough fire risk assessment should pick up the elements of fire compartmentation in your building but not necessarily cover every aspect. So a more detailed fire compartmentation survey is recommended to ensure there are no significant issues with defective measures or non-compliance in accordance with current guidance. This is something we also provide.

At ICE BT we offer professional Fire Compartmentation Installations to ensure your building is fully compliant with current legislation and safety standards. Our team of experts will conduct a thorough examination of your building, to evaluate the fire-resistance and integrity of your building, identify potential issues and make recommendations for any necessary improvements. We can then provide a detailed quotation for any compartmentation work that needs carrying out.

Fire Compartmentation for buildings of all types

We provide comprehensive Fire Compartmentation Installation for buildings of all types and sizes.

Our installation services cover all fire compartments in the building(s), including walls, floors, ceilings, and penetrations. We work with a wide range of businesses implementing fire compartmentation in both new and existing buildings.

For new developments, we ensure compartmentation is correctly installed right from the start, ensuring your premises meet building regulations from day one.

For existing buildings that should include fire-resisting construction, we often uncover issues caused by general wear and tear, building alterations or where current legislation has not been revisited to update the building. In this instance we provide a detailed survey of the deficiencies and can implement remedial works that cover all aspects of passive fire protection, ensuring they integrate with existing fire safety measures like fire alarm systems, fire doors and other fire detection installations.

Prior to any compartmentation work, our assessment will involve a site visit to the building(s) being assessed, appraise the current fire safety measures in place, including the building layout, construction materials, occupancy, and hazards, and provide the correct solution to ensure safety and compliance.

From a document perspective we will review all relevant documentation, including fire safety certificates or reports, fire door risk assessments, building control approval documentation, and any maintenance records or logbooks.
