Compartmentation Surveys
Independent surveys to verify fire compartmentation is effective, intact, and fit for purpose.
Compartmentation Survey Assessments
Compartmentation surveys examine fire-resisting walls, floors and service penetrations to confirm that fire separation is intact. Surveys identify breaches that could allow fire or smoke spread.
Why Compartmentation Matters
Effective compartmentation is essential for controlling fire spread and enabling safe evacuation. Surveys provide assurance that the building performs as intended and highlight issues that may otherwise remain hidden.
