Protected escape routes - fire protection engineering:

Protected escape routes:

• Does the fire resistance fully enclose the protected routes?

• Do the fire doors work correctly?

• Are the fire doors wedged open?

• Do the protected routes have their own final exits leading to ultimate safety?

• Do the doors open in the direction of escape? - only required for over 50 people.

• For taller buildings, do the protected staircases have protected lobbies separating them from the fire risk areas?

• Does the fire resisting escape route need the additional protection of automatic fire detection?
