Ever wonder about fire safety in modular construction? 🤔 These units are designed to be super close together, but they're not actually attached. That's where the fire separation wall comes in! 🔥 It's a crucial safety feature that prevents fires from spreading between buildings, ensuring everyone's safety. 🏗️ #modularconstruction #firesafety #buildingcodes

Not all buildings with RAAC need to be torn down and re-built. In fact, in some cases there might be very little benefit to doing anything. As long as a regular schedule of inspections is put into place, some buildings can carry on with RAAC in place. However, if the RAAC is found to be deficient or structurally inadequate, repairs will need to be made. This is usually in the form of reinforcing the plank bearings, or adding in more edge support. Repairs like this may be a cheaper option and could cause less disturbance to the building and its occupants. If the reinforcement is compromised by something like corrosion or long-term water ingress, then there’s a bigger risk of failure. This is when you may need to demolish and reconstruct the building or parts of it.

Fire & water damage, would you ice blast this, remove the spray foam? It’s non-organic and spray foam is mold resistant, but porous. Looks to be pressure under the top plate and drywall. Open cell comes out with ease, closed cell you better be ready to put in some time and have the correct tools. #project #management #water #fire #propertymanagement #facilitiesmanagement #construction #maintenance #riskmanagement #restoration #vendormanagement

When it comes to building fire safety, the main focus is on ensuring that people and residents can safely evacuate the building and that the building does not collapse. However, assessing the building after a fire is also important. Can concrete beams still support the building’s weight after being exposed to heat? Do they need repairs? Have they lost their capacity, and does the building need to be demolished? This topic is examined in a recent article titled “Experimental analysis of the influence of moderate fire damage on the dynamic and incremental static behavior of reinforced concrete beams.”

“The materials you choose truly matter.” It’s often the difference between catastrophe and a close call. Being that it’s National Fire Prevention Week, I’d be remiss not reminding folks that concrete block saves life. Sprinkler systems and smoke alarms alone don’t cut it. Concrete block is the only sure thing for fire resistance. Build With Strength shows the importance of fire-safe construction: https://lnkd.in/gyDzc3ag

Don't let mold dampen your construction project! 🚧💧 Water intrusion can lead to unwanted mold growth, but with proper inspections and quick response, you can keep your building materials dry and mold-free. Stay ahead of the game! #ConstructionProblems #MoistureControl #MoldPrevention
