  • External-grade fire glass
  • Tested fire-rated curtain wall systems
  • Slab-edge fire-stopping and cavity barriers to the design
  • Spandrel and opaque panel coordination

Key checks for Atherton projects

Higher-risk buildings

Work on higher-risk residential buildings in England goes through the Building Safety Regulator, which needs full product evidence at the design stage.

External-grade glass

External fire glass must be suitable for UV and weather exposure, usually in a sealed double-glazed unit with the fire pane positioned as tested.

Slab edges

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

England regulations that shape the job

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.
