Engineering Judgement

In the field of fire safety engineering, engineering judgments play a crucial role in assessing whether specific elements of a building’s fire safety measures provide an adequate level of safety. These judgments come into play when certain aspects cannot be outright classified as compliant or non-compliant according to the Approved Document B (ADB) or BS 9991.

To address these complex situations, we turn to BS 7974, a British Standard that offers a comprehensive framework for the engineering approach to fire safety in buildings. This standard provides valuable recommendations and guidance on applying scientific and engineering principles to protect people, property, and the environment from fire hazards.
