Buildings rely on fire-resisting walls and floors to isolate and contain fires within one area. However, creating holes and openings on these features are almost always unavoidable due to design constraints.<\/p>\n<p>Creating openings in these features is commonly done to allow for the installation of pipes, conduits, cables, and ducting within your building. However, these &#8220;openings&#8221; present an obvious fire risk as they would allow fire and smoke to traverse spaces that would have otherwise been sealed off from one another. Further, one building alone can have several of these openings in one room alone. As a result, engineers commonly perform fire stopping inspections to ensure that these openings are all properly sealed off.<\/p>\n<h3>Fire Stopping Inspection Requirements<\/h3>\n<p>Here are some important requirements that you need to verify during your fire stopping inspections to comply with the UK Approved Document B :<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Check all fire-resisting elements and penetrations are properly sealed<\/li>\n<li>Confirm materials match tested systems and are correctly installed<\/li>\n<li>Ensure seals are continuous, bonded, and gap-free<\/li>\n<li>Inspect joints, interfaces, and perimeter gaps<\/li>\n<li>Check fire stopping in voids, risers, shafts, and escape routes<\/li>\n<li>Reject untested or incorrect materials<\/li>\n<li>Record photos and notes for compliance<\/li>\n<li>Verify competent installation and proper documentation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>How to Get Fire Stopping Inspection Certification<\/h3>\n<p>First, it is important to note that getting a fire stopping inspection certification is not an explicit requirement in the Approved Document B of the building regulations. However, building control officials often expect engineers to provide some certification (sometimes through a competent third party) of quality fire stopping to demonstrate compliance with regulations. We suggest reaching out to your preferred authorized certification body in order to get specific steps on acquiring fire stopping certification for your building.<\/p>\n<p>If you are the one performing fire stopping inspections, you will usually be required to get an inspector&#8217;s certification as well. Usually, the steps to acquiring a certification varies depending on the certification body. However, you would most probably want to start by choosing the right &#8220;scheme&#8221; for certification, then proceeding with training and assessment exams, and, once passed, finally receiving your certification. <\/p>\n<h3>What are Fire Stopping Special Inspections?<\/h3>\n<p>Special inspection for fire stopping refers to a process where a third-party qualified inspector verifies that the firestop systems installed in a building meet the required standards and are compliant with the appropriate codes. In the UK, the building regulations Approved Document B Fire Safety does not explicitly require any &#8220;special&#8221; inspection.<\/p>\n<p>However, under the Building Safety Act, high rise buildings are usually required to have special inspections to verify its overall compartmentation integrity. Additionally, it should be noted that special inspections must also be performed once building control officials deem it necessary. This is usually performed when new penetrations are created in the fire resisting features in a building, or when there is increased risk due to defects.<\/p>\n<h3>How Often Should Fire Stopping be Inspected?<\/h3>\n<p>The Approved Doc. B (Part B) does not explicitly specify a time interval for fire stopping inspections. However, Part B does require that: <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Inspections should occur whenever works affect a fire-resisting element<\/li>\n<li>Inspections must take place before any fire-stopping is covered or made inaccessible<\/li>\n<li>Inspections should be carried out at construction stages where compartmentation could be compromised<\/li>\n<li>A final inspection is needed before completion so that the fire-stopping forming part of compartmentation can be verified <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Frequently Asked Questions<\/h3>\n<section>\n<details>\n<summary>Why is this the best Fire Stopping Inspection Report?<\/summary>\n<p>With Sitemate&#8217;s Fire Stopping Inspection Report, you can log all the penetrations made to any fire resisting features, be guided with requirements specific to fire stopping, and track any issues of non-compliance.
