Imagine a building in which there were firefighters on duty all day, every day, monitoring its #safety. Well, what if we told you that was possible? The firefighters are called #sprinklers. Our #webinar with @Arch_Today, #DesigningForFire, reveals more: https://t.co/LdTid29UzJ
Thank you for tuning into our #webinar. Special thanks to our wonderful panel team, @JaneDuncan41, @tomroche279, Mark O'Connor (@wsp), Paul Bussey (@AHMMArchitects) & our chair, Iain Cox. We hope to keep the communication going & we all consider how we improve #DesigningForFire
Who really is the person that will be held accountable for #FireSafety? Paul Bussey (@AHMMArchitects) says that the principal designer (aka the #architects) must consult with fire safety specialists to feel comfortable signing off on design. #DesigningForFire #BuildingDesign
Should we be committing specific #BuildingRegulations for different building types? Mark O'Connor (@wsp) believes to futureproof against all possible outcomes, we must gain a greater understanding of how buildings & materials behave in fire. #DesigningForFire
Regulatory relaxation has meant #FireSafety measures under #ADB is not enough protection in multiple cases, as with the below example. "We know our industry cannot deliver fully compliant buildings in terms of structure & building protection", Paul stresses. #DesigningForFire
Mark believes that we need performance-based design to be undertaken by teams who have expertise in all aspects of #FireSafety #engineering. That concludes his presentation. #DesigningForFire #FireStrategy
Life safety is of paramount importance. Protecting buildings and businesses against fire needs to go past #BuildingControl and #BuildingRegs, states Iain. Are #BuildingRegulations always understood? Here's @yougov survey results, from the BSA.

#DidYouKnow that compliance was met for all the buildings appearing on screen during Iain Cox (BSA Chairman) section in the #DesigningForFire webinar. This does not seem like 'success.' The BSA pushes to debunk myths surrounding #sprinklers and costs in association to #FireSafety
Ongoing assessment is vital to ensure that hazards and risks aren't increasing when it comes to #FireSafety and competence of building design. We should be going beyond the minimum of #BuildingRegulations - "Trust but verify" states @tomroche279.
