Passive Fire Protection System
Passive Fire Protection (PFP) is a critical element to any building structure. It plays a preventive role and it represents all the construction methods that allow a structure to resist a fire during a given time (this is fixed by the regulations relating to specific building types).
Passive Fire Protection methods are intended to:
- Stop the progression of fumes.
- Avoid the spread of flames
- Contain thermal effects in the disaster area.
- Maintain the fire stability of structural elements
These methods are known as "passive" as they work without any human intervention or external energy input. They aim to allow the evacuation of people and the intervention of the emergency services, confining the fire as long as possible in a compartmental ised space.
