These systems are most commonly used in commercial buildings but can also be employed in residential properties. Working in conjunction with active fire protection systems, they help to protect people and property from the impact of fire.

Key Aspects of Passive Fire Protection

Fire-Resistant Materials: Walls, floors and ceilings are made from fire-resistant materials to prevent the spread of flames and give occupants more time to escape a blaze.


Compartmentalisation: Compartmentalising buildings with fire barriers such as firewalls and fire doors helps to contain fires and smoke so that occupants can evacuate safely.


Fire Dampers & Seals: Fire dampers are installed within ductwork to stop the spread of fire and smoke through ventilation systems. Fire seals provide a barrier around walls, floors and doors against both fire and smoke.


Intumescent Coatings: Structural elements like steel beams and columns are protected with intumescent coatings. When exposed to high temperatures, these coatings expand to form an insulating barrier which helps to maintain the structural integrity of a building.


Fire-Resistant Glazing: Fire-resistant glass is used in windows and doors to provide visibility while protecting against fire and smoke. This helps to ensure safe evacuation.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How is the fire resistance of materials and components tested and rated?

    The fire resistance of materials and components is determined through standardised fire tests, such as those conducted in accordance with Australian standards. These tests subject the materials to controlled fire conditions and measure their performance. Fire resistance ratings are expressed in hours, indicating the duration of protection they provide.

  • Do passive fire control systems contribute to energy efficiency in buildings?

    Yes, some passive fire control measures, like fire-resistant insulation, can contribute to energy efficiency by providing thermal insulation. This dual-purpose approach helps maintain comfortable indoor temperatures while ensuring fire safety.

  • Can fire doors be customised to match the aesthetics of a building?

    Yes, fire doors can be customised to match the aesthetics of a building. They are available in various finishes, including veneer, paint and decorative laminates. However, any customisation must not compromise the fire resistance or functionality of the door.
