Passive fire and smoke systems are integral in forming a separation between fire compartments. All buildings are constructed to strictly outlined performance and functionality requirements in order to meet the objectives outlined in the building Codes of Australia.
These include:
- Safeguard people from injury in the event of a fire
- Prevent the spread of fire
- Allow occupants of the building to evacuate safely
- To contain services, plant and equipment within their own fire compartments
To ensure that passive fire and smoke systems are functional, routine maintenance is outlined in Australian Standards 1851.
