Regulations for Renfrewshire and Inverclyde projects
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.
Fire Glazing Surveys in Renfrewshire and Inverclyde: questions
Is a survey the same as a fire risk assessment?
No. A fire risk assessment looks at the whole premises. A fire glazing survey looks in detail at the glazed elements of the compartmentation.
Who needs a fire glazing survey?
Building owners, managing agents, those responsible for fire safety and contractors who need to know whether glazing in fire-resisting walls and doors is suitable.
How long does a survey take?
It depends on the number of glazed elements and access. Most single buildings are surveyed in a day or less.
Which parts of Renfrewshire and Inverclyde do you cover?
All of it: Paisley, Greenock, Newton Mearns, Renfrew and every district in the PA, G postcode areas.
