Globally, every
building is required to meet a number of rules and regulation regarding fire
safety. Now, the more strict rules and regulation have been implemented to ensure
the fully operational and effective fire safety system. Fire protection is even
more crucial, while dealing with large scale buildings, which includes mass
transit, hospitals, schools, sporting arenas and leisure facilities and multi
story buildings, as all of these places have the massive public load.
So you are required to
completely follow all of the fire safety guidelines and regulations, to ensure
the safety of the building and its inhabitants and visitors. All of this can be ensured by choosing the
right kind of fire retardant building panels, which can enable the extensive
damage control in the case of any fire emergency and minimize the damage of
human lives.
How to choose right fire retardant building materials:
When it comes to selecting fire retardant building materials, you have to go for a right grade of Fire Retardant (FR) Aluminium Composite Materials (ACM). There are a number of factors that impact the performance of a Fire Retardant.
These performance
criteria are:
- · Lateral and Vertical spread of fire
- · Smoke emission
- · Droplets
- · Self-extinction of fire on the Aluminium Composite Materials (ACM)
Keeping these performance criteria in the view, the right product and
system should be considered that can offer comprehensive protection against the
fire. Another factor that has the significant importance when it comes to fire
prevention is to adopt a right test methodology and standards during the
installation process of Fire Retardant panel. Ideally,right test methodology is the
combination of product test like EN 13501-1 and the intermediate-scale multi
story test like NFPA 285 or BS 8414 and fully comply with the above mentioned
performance criteria.
