Fundamental philosophies of fire safety

Prevention through proper design and construction

Provisions for
Smoke/fire detection
Restriction of spread
Extinguishment systems
Evacuation of buildings: Horizontal and vertical evacuation to be
planned

Preventive measures

Non combustible material to be used in load bearing elements, stair ways

and corridors
Proper plug and sockets to be provided for heating appliances
Electrical wiring laid in separate duct and sealed at every alternate floor with
non combustible materials.
Good house keeping and proper waste disposal
Proper storage conditions, and segregation of combustible and explosive
materials like gases, chemicals and x ray films

Restriction of spread

Unit concept of construction

Min fire resistance offered by structural frame: 2 hrs
Compartmentalization of building:
smoke stop doors of minimum half an hour fire resistance to be interposed between
galleries, lobbies and between wards. Single swing type opening in the direction of
escape
AC ducts provided with dampers/stoppers. Dampers installed in inlet duct at ac plant
room and fire separation walls provided wherever ducts enter the vertical shafts.
At least two areas of refuge to be provided in each horizontal plane.
Fire and smoke should not go up and down the level of origin. Vulnerable spots: stair
ways, lifts, chutes, shafts etc. RCC floors resistance:2 hrs
Life risk areas( wards, OT etc) should be segregated from high hazard service areas
(boiler room, laundry, gas supply etc)
Exits:
min 2 on each floor with area more than 500sq.m.
Corridor: 2.4m wide, well lit with signage, clear of obstructions
Door exits lead directly to outside, interior stairway, exterior stairs, horizontal
exits, ramps, or exit passage ways.
door: min 2m high and 2m wide, open able from both sides.
For buildings more than 24m height, refuge area of 15sq.m or .3sqm per person to
accommodate occupants of 2 consecutive floors, whichever is higher should be
provided.

Wet riser systems of pipes 150

mm dia located within lobby,
approach staircase or within
staircase where there is no
lobby.
One riser for floor area
1000sq.m
Riser passes from ground
floor to top floor and each
floor should be bound with
one landing valve and two
oulets for connecting to
hose reels
Capacity of Under tank for
wet riser:
50,000 for hospitals of
3 levels
1 lakh L for hospitals
with height 15m- 24m
1.5 lakh L for hospitals
with height 24m- 30m

Fire fighting equipments

Fire extinguishers at strategic points

Automatic sprinkler extinguisher systems
Fire detection systems where equipment may get damaged by water
Separate water supply

Safe fire exits

Wards: travel distance from the

farthest point in the ward room to
the exit door should be 30m or
less. Where this cannot be ensures
2 or more doors should be
provided

Corridors and escape routes to be provided with recessed lights in the wall
.5m above the floor with power supply from a separate emergency source.
At least one enclosed staircase from each fire protected zone to the ground
floor outside the building.
Childrens ward, maternity ward, ICUs, fracture treatment wards, where every
patient needs assistance could be located on ground floor or first floor so
efforts to save them in an emergency is less.
Since vertical transportation is relatively more difficult arrangements should be
made so that patients can be transferred from one section to another section
of the same floor separated by a fire protection zone.
