Retrospective Fire Strategies

A retrospective fire strategy will consider how an existing building is likely to have met the functional fire safety requirements of the Building Regulations, B1 to B5, when it was constructed. The benefit of having a fire strategy written for an existing building is that it provides clear documentation of the building’s fire safety measures – this makes any fire safety review or fire risk assessment of the building an easier task.

Design Fire Strategies

Assessing your design plans at early RIBA stages against an agreed set of fire safety objectives, then confirming and documenting appropriate fire safety measures to meet those objectives. Continuing to work with you during construction, clarifying any assumptions and assessing any build changes for compliance with Part B of the Building Regulations. Amendment of the design fire strategy and production of an as-built version of the fire strategy for client handover.
