Why have Fire Precaution System Drawings

Fire precaution drawings form an essential part of the overall fire strategy and management for a building.

To meet the legal requirements of the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, building owners and occupiers must ensure that the fire safety precautions in their buildings are provided on a drawing, adequately managed and maintained.

The Fire Safety Order is a Risk Assessment based Approach where the responsible person must decide how to address the risks identified, while meeting certain basic requirements.

Addressing and dealing with the risks almost always requires drawings.

NIFES can provide fire precaution drawings using industry standard symbols and assist with asset management and production of drawings required for building control submissions.

NIFES professional, qualified and experienced surveyors have an understanding of all fire systems.

What NIFES Can Offer

NIFES experienced fire safety consultants can carry out a review of the fire precautions provided against the relevant standards and risks present. Furthermore NIFES can audit the testing and maintenance documentation to ensure that the systems are being maintained to a compliant standard.

NIFES will inspect the following fire safety systems:

  • Fire alarm & detection system
  • Emergency lighting system
  • Fire & Smoke Dampers
  • First aid firefighting equipment
  • Sprinkler & Gaseous systems
  • Fire exit signage and escape routes
  • Ventilation & Smoke Control Systems.

Drawings are prepared in AutoCAD format in order to allow our clients to update them as and when circumstances change.

Due to the nature of the work in the Health Service survey work is often undertaken “out of hours” and NIFES surveyors are well practiced in the requirement to take into consideration the specific needs of our clients.

Drawings are prepared in AutoCAD format in order to allow our clients to update them as circumstances change.

NIFES provide a strategic and practical approach to health and safety management, covering both short and long term objectives. We can analyse information from physical surveys and existing data to produce health and safety audits, risk assessment reviews, training needs analyses and compliance gap analyses.
