I will provide structural fire engineering and encasement spec for UK building control
About this Gig
Need compliant structural fire protection specifications to satisfy UK Building Control?
Under Approved Document B (Requirement B3 - Internal Fire Spread Structure), structural frame elements such as load-bearing steelwork, timber frames, and columns must maintain structural stability during a fire for a specified period. Incomplete or generic structural fire specifications are a common reason for delayed council sign-offs.
What This Service Includes
- Fire Resistance Period Determination: Categorizing structural elements according to building height, purpose group, and Part B3 requirements.
- Structural Fire Encasement Specs: Detailed material specifications for intumescent paint coatings, fire-line board encasements, and column/beam protection.
- Section Factor Guidance: Evaluating steel section sizes to specify correct dry-film thickness (DFT) or board thickness.
- Timber & Concrete Structural Assessments: Fire resistance evaluations for glulam, CLT, timber joists, and reinforced concrete frames.
