Key checks for Newport (Isle of Wight) projects
Deflection and fixings
Head details and fixing centres come from the system documentation, especially beneath long-span slabs.
Matching non-rated glazing
Aluminium fire screens can be visually matched to non-rated partitions elsewhere, so a floor reads as one design while only some walls are fire-rated.
Inserts make the rating
Fire-rated aluminium profiles contain insulating and intumescent inserts that standard profiles do not. Swapping in a standard section to save cost removes the rating.
