Frequently Asked Questions
Legacy building construction refers to structures that are older and may not comply with current building codes and fire safety regulations. These buildings often require specialised maintenance and updates to ensure safety and functionality while preserving their historical significance. It’s important to note, they are not the same as historic or listed buildings.
Legacy building fire protection includes:
Analysing the materials used in construction and accompanying information.
Assessing the building's overall state.
Ensuring compliance with fire protection regulations.
Ensuring fire compartmentation is properly maintained.
Evaluating all fire protection systems in the building.
Maintaining effective fire barriers.
Outlining the building's emergency procedures in the event of a fire.
Providing information about the building's escape routes.
Reviewing the design of the structure.
Updating the building to meet current fire safety standards.
Passive fire protection systems can last a building's lifetime with proper maintenance. However, each system has a different lifespan. For example, fire doors last at least 15 years, whereas fire compartmentation has no limit.
