Protection of life and property from the effects of fire is one of the key objectives of Building Codes around the world. Requirement for fire-rating of building elements is one of the strategies commonly employed to achieve this objective. Henan Daswell Machinery Co., Ltd,is a professional manufacturer and trader specializing in the research, development and production of construction machinery for nearly 30 years.Our main products are as follows:concrete pump, concrete batching plants,concrete mixer,blocking making machine,concrete pump,etc. The fire safety requirements that designers must adhere to for new and existing buildings, are continually being updated. However batch plant, the recent destructive blaze at East Africa's largest airport, Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, has refocused attention to whether most buildings are safe from fire accidents. There are many ways of safeguarding a building from fire but one option that is often overlooked is the use of qualified architects who can use design to boost fire safety for occupants and buildings. Building and fire codes are intended to protect against loss of life and limit fire impact on the community and do not necessarily protect the mission or assets, or solve problems brought upon by new projects with unique circumstances. Therefore, it is necessary to creatively and efficiently integrate code requirements with other fire safety measures as well as other design strategies to achieve a balanced design that will provide the desired levels of safety; evacuation, recovery, egress/smoke etc. As buildings become more complex and architects push the design envelope ever further, it is crucial to consider fire safety implications of new buildings or other construction projects at the concept design stage.
