  Type 3

  Type 4

• 
  A Type -1 Fire Risk Assessment is a non-destructive assessment of the common parts of a building. Unless it is suspected that there are serious deficiencies in structural fire protection, a Type -1 Fire Risk Assessment would normally be sufficient for most buildings and apartment blocks.
  

• 
  A type 2 Fire Risk Assessments are only recommended if a Type 1 FRA concluded that there may be serious structural flaws in a building which may increase the risk of fire spreading. A Type 2 FRA includes destructive sampling.
  

• <br>A Type 3 Fire Risk Assessment is comprehensive – and covers more than the law requires. This type of assessment covers all common areas of a building – and individual dwellings.<br><br>

  Yes

  No

  N/A

• <br>A type 4 Fire Risk Assessments are similar to Type 2 FRAs, as they include a destructive sampling, but in both the common parts of a building and living areas – such as apartments. Type 4 FRAs are more comprehensive – and complicated to complete. This is because access to individual dwellings is required and destructive sampling can lead to a need for repairs.<br><br>

• Please stipulate?

• The “Code of practice for fire safety in the design, management and use of buildings” (BS 9999) takes a complementary approach to the calculation of a premises "Risk Profile", based on two main factors:

• 1. Occupancy Characteristic; and
  2. Fire Growth Rate.

• Combining these two factors creates the "Risk Profile" of a specific building. This means that there is scope for a much more interpretative approach, on a case by case basis, which takes into account the specific features of an individual building. This is especially significant when considering the issue of escape routes and fire exits in existing premises, particularly if they are of an historical or heritage nature.

undefined

Characteristics

• The occupancy characteristic is principally determined according to whether the occupants are familiar or unfamiliar with the building (i.e. the difference between emergency and panic exits) and whether they are likely to be awake or asleep.

• Occupancy Characteristic A - Occupants who are awake and familiar with the building (e.g. Office and industrial premises)

• Occupancy Characteristic B - Occupants who are awake and unfamiliar with the building (e.g. Shops, exhibitions, museums, leisure centres, other assembly buildings, etc).

• Occupancy Characteristic C - Occupants who are likely to be asleep (e.g. Hotels, boarding schools, halls of residence etc).

undefined

Fire Growth Rate

• The Fire Growth Rate (FGR) is estimated according to the nature and quantity of combustible materials in a specific building, as follows:

• Category 1 - Slow FGR - e.g. limited number of combustible materials.

• Category 2 - Medium FGR - e.g. stacked cardboard boxes.

• Category 3 - Fast FGR - e.g. baled clothing, stacked plastic products.

• Category 4 - Ultra Fast FGR - e.g. flammable Liquids.

undefined

Premises Risk Profile

• Accordingly the Premises Risk Profile for the Branch has been rated as:

  Select A1 - Occupants who are awake and familiar with the building - Slow Fire Growth Rate A2 - Occupants who are awake and familiar with the building - Medium Fire Growth Rate A3 - Occupants who are awake and familiar with the building - Fast Fire Growth Rate A4 - Occupants who are awake and familiar with the building - Ultra Fast Fire Growth Rate B1 - Occupants who are awake and unfamiliar with the building - Slow Fire Growth Rate B2 - Occupants who are awake and unfamiliar with the building - Medium Fire Growth Rate B3 - Occupants who are awake and unfamiliar with the building - Fast Fire Growth Rate B4 - Occupants who are awake and unfamiliar with the building - Ultra Fast Fire Growth Rate C1 - Occupants who are likely to be asleep - Slow Fire Growth Rate C2 - Occupants who are likely to be asleep - Medium Fire Growth Rate C3 - Occupants who are likely to be asleep - Fast Fire Growth Rate C4 - Occupants who are likely to be asleep - Ultra Fast Fire Growth Rate Other Further Details:

Executive Summary

• This fire risk assessment report is based on the observations made and information gathered during a visit to the premises on the date of the assessment, and relates to the above named premises and address only.
  

• Safetyform are grateful to all those who assisted the assessor during the assessment, for their time, courtesy and the information they were able to provide regarding the day to day operations of the premises and to assist with this fire risk assessment.

• The basic purpose of a “Fire Risk Assessment” (FRA) is to identify the general fire precautions the responsible person needs to take. The FRA should only be carried out when a premise is occupied and in normal use. If, in the case of a new or refurbished premise, there is a need to carry out a ‘pre-occupation’ FRA, a further assessment should be carried out as soon as the premises is in normal use.

• This FRA has been conducted with regard to the principles and approach of the latest revision of Publicly Available Specification 79 (PAS 79), with the overall mission of ensuring that all has been done to reduce both hazard and risk to a level that can be demonstrated to be as low as reasonably practicable (ALARP).

• Additional guidance from Approved Document B of the Building Regulations and British Standard 9999 have also been used as points of reference.

• The assessment, observations and recommendations are only relevant to the conditions within the premises at the time of the assessments.

• The significant findings arising from the assessment are contained in the "Summary of Findings & Action Plan" section.

• The responsible person should act on these findings to achieve compliance with the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.

RECORD OF SIGNIFICNT FINDINGS REQUIRING REMEDIAL ACTIONS

• This section details any significant findings which were observed during the Fire Risk Assessment and provides recommendations for improvements to rectify the findings and gives a timeline for when the improvements should be completed.

• Any significant findings will be categorised into 3 priority levels.
  
  Priority 1 Actions:
  Are considered serious breaches of legislation or guidance which have the potential for serious injury, death to occupants or enforcement action. Priority 1 actions should be completed immediately or as soon as is reasonably practicable.
  
  Priority 2 Actions:
  Are considered non-compliant with legislation or relevant guidance and could lead to enforcement action being issued. Priority 2 actions should be completed within 3 months.
  
  Priority 3 Actions:
  Are identified as issues that may not pose a threat to occupants or run the risk of enforcement action, but are considered to require attention as part of recognised industry best practice, with no specific timeline allocated unless the consultant specifies a timeline within their recommendations.

• Assessor observations

• The fire risk rating for any premises can be determined by combination of the likelihood of fire and the likely consequences of fire, using a matrix; this is a method of risk assessment commonly adopted in the field of health and safety.
  
  

  

undefined

• Note: The risk ratings recorded in the remedial actions table are intended to provide an indication of the severity of the associated risk and assist with prioritisation of work. They should not be taken to imply any specific time period for completion or legal immunity in any intervening period.

undefined

• Remedial actions with fire risk ratings:
  
  1 - Low impact and recommended as a means of achieving best practice – Adequate risk (green).
  
  2-4 - Slight compromises of fire safety that can be improved upon – Tolerable risk (yellow).
  
  5-7 - May not directly affect the safety of people but compromises fire safety of the premises – Moderate risk (amber).
  
  8-9 - Directly affects the safety of people – Substantial risk (red).
  
  10 - Critical/immediate risk to the safety of people – Intolerable risk (dark red).
  
  Note: The Enforcing Authority may consider the deficiencies to constitute an offence.

• Taking into account the fire prevention measures observed at the time of this risk assessment, it is considered that the hazard from fire (likelihood of fire) at these premises is:

  Low

  Medium

  High

undefined

• 
  In this context, a definition of the above terms is as follows:
  
  Low: Unusually low likelihood of fire as a result of negligible potential sources of ignition.
  
  Med: Normal fire hazards (e.g. potential ignition sources) for this type of occupancy, with fire hazards generally subject to appropriate controls (other than minor shortcomings).
  
  High: Lack of adequate controls applied to one or more significant fire hazards, such as to result in significant increase in likelihood of fire.
  

undefined

• Having assessed the fire hazards present, the occupancy profile and having evaluated the general fire precautions in place at the time of this fire risk assessment, it is considered that the consequences for life safety in the event of fire would be:

  Slight Harm

  Moderate Harm

  Major Harm

  Extreme Harm

undefined

• 
  In this context, a definition of the above terms is as follows:
  
  Slight Harm: Outbreak of fire unlikely to result in serious injury or death of any occupant (other than an occupant sleeping in a room in which a fire occurs).
  
  Moderate Harm: Outbreak of fire could foreseeably result in injury (including serious injury) of one or more occupants, but it is unlikely to involve multiple fatalities.
  
  Extreme Harm: Significant potential for serious injury or death of one or more occupants.
  

undefined

• Accordingly, it is considered that the risk to life from fire at these premises is:

  Tolerable

  Moderate

  Intolerable

undefined

• 
  A suitable risk-based control plan should involve effort and urgency that is proportional to risk. The following risk-based control plan is based on one that has been advocated for general health and safety risks. This is reflected in the subsequent significant findings with remedial actions table.
  

undefined

• Following the assessment and before leaving the branch, Safetyform carried out a debriefing session with the branch manager/deputy manager to discuss the assessment findings and the actions required to be taken where required.

• We, the below signatories, confirm that a Fire Risk Assessment was undertaken at the above named premises on the below date and that a formal debriefing session was undertaken between Safetyform & the branch manager/deputy manager.
