Book excerpt: The threat of fire is a major concern to construction clients, architects and other construction professionals. Beyond the critical life safety issues, major fires will severely interrupt business, with the cost to the UK economy exceeding £7 billion every year and the statistics for consequent business failure remaining high. Protecting property as well as people from fire is a key business objective and designing-in appropriate measures from the start can considerably reduce the cost of implementation. In this guide, the extra measures needed for property protection and business resilience are combined with the essential life-safety measures required by Approved Document B: Fire Safety (Volume 2). Essentially reproducing the official Approved Document in full but enhanced by comprehensive annotations by RISCAuthority, the guide provides the design community with a practical and easy-to-use shortcut to meeting the requirements of not just the Building Regulations, but also clients and their insurers. Now features: the 2013 revision of Approved Document B: Fire safety (volume 2 - buildings other than dwellinghouses), reflecting the most recent building regulations; revised insurance providers' requirements, updated to reflect modern methods of construction, the green agenda and modular construction; a brand-new appendix dealing with the protection of buildings made of combustible structure (such as timber).

Download or read book Means of Escape from Fire written by M. J. Billington and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-04-15 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The provision of an adequate means of escape from fire is fundamental to the design of new buildings and to the alteration, change of use or extension of existing buildings. It is essential that means of escape are considered at the earliest stage of a project as mistakes are very expensive to correct later in the design. There is a great deal of legislation on means of escape design and control, but this is scattered throughout a large number of statutes, regulations and guidance documents. Many buildings need to be licensed and/or registered, as well as requiring certification and Building Regulation compliance. This book provides an invaluable reference on the subject for architects, surveyors and building control officers. It: ? identifies the legislation which applies to any particular building use ? describes the general principles of designing means of escape, together with a ten step approach for a range of residential and non-residential buildings ? considers alternative design options based on fire safety engineering ? outlines fire safety management in premises in use as an aid to employers, who have a statutory duty to undertake fire risk assessments.
