What is fire protection?

Fire protection are all measures which prevent the occurrence of fire and the spread of fire and smoke ( fire prevention or fire prevention ). Rescue of people and animals as well as effective extinguishing work in the event of a fire are also part of fire protection ( protective fire protection ).

 

What is a fire protection concept?

The fire protection concept represents the preliminary stage to the fire protection regulations and describes the structural and legal situation of a building or structure. It develops specifications for the fire protection infrastructure and equipment and all necessary individual measures to control the existing risks and to achieve the relevant or defined protection goals. It also evaluates the degree of achievement of the defined protection goals. A fire protection concept is necessary if it is necessary to deviate from the building regulations or if it is a special construction (e.g. hospitals, sports facilities, industrial plants, etc.).

What are the pillars of a fire protection concept?

When creating a fire protection plan two important pillars must be considered: preventive and defensive forming fire protection .

Preventive fire protection is the term for all preventive measures that counteract the occurrence and spread of fires in advance and limit the effects of fires as far as possible. This also includes containment in the event of a fire and the creation of conditions for protective fire protection, for example in the form of escape and rescue routes.

The preventive fire protection is divided in:

  • Constructional fire protection: z. B. by selection of building materials, subdivision of larger structures into fire sections (fire-resistant walls, fire walls, ...)
  • Technical fire protection: z. B. fire alarm systems, smoke and heat exhaust systems
  • Organizational fire protection: e.g. B. Marking and keeping escape and rescue routes free

As fire defense are active and passive measures that payable by firefighters and other help points are taken before and during a fire, respectively. The protective fire protection starts when the preventive measures could not take effect and a fire has broken out.
