A fire barrier is any structural or layout solution that prevents fire from spreading for a specified time. To stop a fire from developing inside a building, general and local fire barriers are provided at the design stage.
Building structures are classified by fire resistance and fire spread. Fire resistance is measured as the time (in minutes) from the start of a standard fire test until the structure reaches one of the limit states:
- loss of load-bearing capacity (R);
- loss of integrity (E);
- loss of insulation (I).
Under Ukrainian building regulations, fire barriers include fire walls, partitions and floors; openings in them are closed with fire doors, gates, windows, hatches, dampers and curtains (screens). Fire-rated airlocks can also be used at openings.
Kodeks Bezpeky installs:
- fire doors
