What's involved with fire-rated curtain walling in Greenwich

We supply and install fire-rated curtain walling and fire-rated zones within standard curtain walling, alongside the fire-stopping at slab edges. External wall work is closely scrutinised after recent regulatory changes, so every element we fit is backed by evidence for its position.

  • Slab-edge fire-stopping and cavity barriers to the design
  • Spandrel and opaque panel coordination
  • Fire-rated zones within mixed facades
  • External-grade fire glass

Key checks for Greenwich projects

Slab edges

The gap between the curtain wall and each floor slab needs fire-stopping designed with the facade, not added afterwards.

Combustibility rules

In England, materials in the external walls of relevant buildings 18 metres or more in height are restricted. We coordinate with the facade designer on every component.

Thermal and acoustic

Fire-rated units can still meet thermal targets when specified correctly; we confirm U-values with the system supplier.

Which rules apply to fire-rated curtain walling in Greenwich?

England Which rules apply?

Building work in England is covered by the Building Regulations 2010, with fire safety guidance in Approved Document B and impact safety guidance for glazing in Approved Document K.

Once a building is in use, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person to maintain fire safety measures, including fire-resisting glazing. The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.
