🔥FIRE COMPARTMENTATION & FIRE STOPPING AWARENESS COURSES🔥 Last week saw Julian Day MCIOB MIFSM TFRAR delivering our CPD session on Fire Compartmentation and Fire Stopping Awareness to a large, multi-disciplinary client at their head office in Hertfordshire. This was the second well received session for this client to their team which included service engineers, trade persons, supervisors, site managers, and commercial staff. The session was tailored to provide all personnel with an understanding of fire compartmentation and the effective fire stopping of breaches, which is of vital importance in their day-to-day work ensuring that their staff do not start works in buildings without understanding what fire compartmentation is. Included in the session is why compartment lines and fire stopping are there and the importance of them, what effect the persons activities may have on the resistance of fire compartmentation, and who to contact for information and guidance to ensure ongoing fire integrity and compliance. As Julian states on the course - “You wouldn’t drill into a wall without knowing if it contained asbestos, so why would you make a hole in a wall not knowing and understanding if it was a fire compartment line and what fire integrity needs to be maintained.” If you would like to hear more about our CPD courses, please get in touch – https://lnkd.in/e-m-ziqC 01362 293555 #firesafety #firesafetyconsultancy #CPD #fireprevention #firedoors #training

🏅 Specialist Contractors Charter 🏅 3B Fire Consultancy have signed up to Fire Aware’s Specialist Contractor Charter. The charter recognises the difficulty that some customers can have in understanding the technical nature of fire safety delivery and as such promotes awareness to engage customers with simple terminology and clear language to ensure a clear understanding. We are delighted to now announce that 3B has been awarded full Fire Aware Charter Compliance. This follows the submission and examination of our processes and philosophy to ensure we are diligent and customer focused. Fire safety is non-negotiable, and we welcomed the opportunity to review our current processes, outputs & mindset. Julian Day MCIOB MIFSM TFRAR, Director 3B Fire Consultancy comments – “The charter asks the member business to always consider the safety of the end user, and to go above and beyond the minimum standards, to promote an enthusiasm and moral accountability within the delivery and management of 3B Fire Consultancy’s work. As such we identify itself as a business that cares for the end users and their fire safety. Morality, integrity, and a passion to help, are our guiding principles.” 3B Fire Consultancy has always believed that Fire Protection should be built into the fabric of every building with the sole aim of protecting the structure, visitors and occupants, and most importantly to ensure preservation of life. With the end user’s safety at the core of everything we do, we make sure that all our experienced consultants, who have years of industry experience, are up to date with the latest regulations and practices, and that all the services we offer go above and beyond expectations. Recent feedback on our Fire Risk Assessments stated - “The advice, collaboration, proactive approach and final reports were all excellent. Clear information laid out and everything actioned together with our team to ensure full understanding, and ultimately a clear route to full compliance and peace of mind for our residents.” Fire Aware was created following the Grenfell Tower disaster and the subsequent ‘Hackett Report’ where a distinct lack of morality in the consideration of the resident’s safety has been identified. “The charter is designed to eradicate the gaps in the industry that enable the race to the bottom. Those who commit to the charters are recognising that their business will only act in a way that upholds their duty of care to the end user of their services. In return for that they are identified as being Fire Aware.” - Gavin Skelly FCIOB MIConstM aFA, Founder Fire Aware To find out more about 3B Fire Consultancy and our high-quality services, please get in touch on 01362 293555 https://lnkd.in/eZMSb9xA #fireaware #firesafety #fireprevention #firedoors #fireprotection

Forever in our hearts… let us never forget Remembering the innocent 72 residents killed tragically in the Grenfell Tower fire 7 years ago today. Our thoughts are with their family and friends left behind.

📆 WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOUR FIRE DOORS WERE INSPECTED? 📆 Fire doors are an integral part of fire safety and protection measures for any building, as they are there to contain fires to a particular area, giving people time to move or escape and to avoid smoke and fire from the affected risk area. Nevertheless, fire doors are also used regularly, as they are functional in buildings, making them susceptible to regular wear and tear and damage, which in turn compromises the quality of fire protection they provide. Therefore inspections, surveys, and remediation are important to ensure the buildings are compliant with fire safety regulations and the fire doors are effective as they need to be. Regulation 10 requires that, if the top storey of the building is above 11m in height (typically, a building of more than four storeys) the Responsible Person must: + use best endeavours to check all flat entrance fire doors at least every 12 months: and + carry out checks of any fire doors in communal areas at least every 3 months. Our professional team perform thorough assessments of all fire doors in your building in line with third party accredited criterion (BMTrada), identifying any issues, defects, or non-compliance with regulatory standards. Our Fire Door Inspection Reports are detailed and clearly laid out, including our recommendations should any of the doors fail an inspection. Additionally, regular maintenance can be provided to ensure that the fire doors continue to function correctly and are up to date with any changes in regulations. Don’t put your occupants’ safety at risk.
