Fire safety refers to precautions
that are taken to prevent or reduce the likelihood of a fire that can cause
death , injury or property damage , alert those in a structure to the presence
of an uncontrolled fire if gives better to allow threatened by fire to survive
and evacuate the affected areas, or to reduce the damage caused by the fire.
The fire safety measures that are anticipated during the construction of a
building or implemented in structures that are already standing, and is taught
to occupants of the building are included.
Threats to fire safety are
referred to as fire hazards . A fire hazard may include a situation that
increases the likelihood of a fire may start or may impede escape in case of
fire .
Cable Fire ProtectionProtection
is often a component of building safety . Those who inspect buildings for
violations of the Fire Code and go into schools to educate children on Fire
Safety topics are fire department members known as fire prevention officers .
Chief Fire Prevention Officer or Chief Fire Prevention normally train newcomers
to the Fire Prevention Division and may also conduct inspections or make
presentations .

Another
important method of fire protection. Fireproofing, Fire Protection , a measure of
passive fire protection , refers to the act of making materials or structures
more resistant to fire, or to those materials themselves , or the act of
applying such materials. The application of a system of certification of fire
protection that correspond to certain structures allows these to have a fire
resistance rating . The term " test" is a commercial term , which is
also reflected in the specifications of common American construction , which
does not necessarily mean that an item can not ever burn or be disabled as a
result of exposure to fire . It relates to measured performance under specific
test and evaluation. Fireproofing does not allow treated items are entirely
unaffected by any fire, as conventional materials are not immune to the effects
of the intensity and / or duration sufficient fire.
Most 3M firestopping innovations
are tested in place in the center of the fire test with UL , ULC and Intertek
certification company . By testing these systems in the special conditions, we
help you with high quality, Fire Stop solutions. Some of its products include
Fire Barrier Duct Wrap 615, Ineram ™ Endothermic Mat for commercial buildings ,
Pillows autoblocante fire barrier , Fire Barrier Putty Sleeve Kits, Fire stops
and Risk Management Programs , Facilities Management Fire Protection systems -

Among conventional gypsum
fireproofing materials specially designed spray have become abundantly
available worldwide . The inorganic methods include gypsum plasters , cement
plasters , fibrous gypsum .
The industry considers
gypsum-based plasters to be " Cement " , despite not containing
Portland cement or calcium aluminate . Plasters containing traditionally
Portland cement concrete are lightened by using inorganic aggregate such as
vermiculite and perlite light .
