Why Fire Door Compartmentation & Fire Stopping?
Fire door compartmentation is a an effective way of breaking up a building structurally to allow for longer periods of time to escape and for fire to spread less. Fire door compartmentation works by subsiding space within a building thus maximising the protection it can give to occupants.
Here’s a good example of how fire compartmentation can be life saving. If you imagine that a fire was to break out in a hallway of an office, and you were in a meeting room down the hall – there would likely be a fire wall, fire door and fire safety equipment in the way before the fire gets to your meeting room.
