What to check before ordering fire glazing remedial works in Falkirk
Service penetrations
Cables and pipes through glazed screens and their surrounds must be fire-stopped with products tested for that application.
Working in occupied buildings
We plan remedial programmes around residents, pupils or staff, with phasing and clear communication.
Evidence first
Remedial glass and seals must suit the existing frame's evidence. Where that evidence is missing, we raise it before work starts.
Scotland regulations that shape the job
Scotland Which rules apply?
In Scotland, building work needs a building warrant under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004, with fire guidance in Section 2 of the Building Standards Technical Handbooks rather than Approved Documents.
For relevant premises, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 place duties on the duty holder to maintain fire safety measures, which include fire-resisting glazing.
Scottish guidance has its own approach to escape routes and compartmentation, so glazing designs are checked against the Technical Handbooks and the warrant drawings.
