Fire in your building is a scenario we'd rather not think about for several reasons. For this reason, it is important, for both user safety and damage to the building, to have fire safety in order and to prevent the occurrence of fire and limit damage. The fire safety of your building not only depends on fire prevention measures in your building, but also on structural and installation facilities. vb&t Fire Safety & Environment advises you as an independent party about the fire safety in your building, from design to the use phase.
Fire safety in your building
Achieving and maintaining fire safety in buildings goes hand in hand with complex legislation and many guidelines. The government has drawn up fire safety requirements aimed at the fire safety of buildings and the safety of people in and around a building. These are laid down in the Buildings Decree 2012. This describes the measures to be taken to prevent the spread of fire, how people must be able to escape quickly and safely and how the number of victims can be limited or prevented. Our consultants can help you with all these aspects of fire safety and look together with you at the measures needed.
