Changes to the fire regulations across the UK and the challenge of showing compliance with them, is motivating a growing number of construction professionals to book a place on FIREFLY®’s highly informative CPD seminar. Entitled “The Design and Understanding of Passive Fire Protection and Compartmentation”, the 60 minute presentation provides an introduction to the behaviour of fire and the distinctions between active and passive protection measures, before moving on to explain the various ways in which fully compliant compartmentation can be achieved to prevent the spread of fire within a building.
Daniel Gordon, the Specification Sales Manager for Scotland and Ireland, comments: “Architects and fire assessors are joining to us to learn more about compartmentation and flexible fire barriers in particular and generally wanting us to update their conceptual knowledge of the subject as standards, compliance requirements and indeed solutions available all continue to evolve." Amongst the consultancies that Daniel has delivered the module to in recent times is Keppie Design in Glasgow, a practice responsible for creating some of Scotland’s most prestigious projects. FIREFLY® manufactures and supplies a range of fully tested fire barriers which are suitable for protecting all types of new-build construction as well as being widely used in retrofit situations. www.tbafirefly.com
