Data halls and technical spaces
Confirm the fire strategy, access permissions and operational constraints before any work near live equipment.
Change-controlled passive fire work
Passive fire protection for data centres.
Data-centre environments demand disciplined access, change control and accurate records around critical services. FireX can support defined passive fire scopes where permits, tested details, service interfaces and the required delivery controls are agreed before work begins.
Operational priorities
Planning beyond the technical detail.
Suitable passive fire work depends on the tested solution and on how the building can be accessed, controlled and handed back.
- Permit, access and change-control compliance
- Accurate service and penetration identification
- Tested systems suited to the actual configuration
- Photographic and location-linked handover records
Building types
Support suited to the environment.
Plant rooms and service risers
Review services, access and isolation requirements together with the fire-resisting wall or floor interface.
Support and operations areas
Agree permits, dust controls and phased releases with the site operations team.
New-build and live-site work packages
Define inspection points before concealment and keep live-site restrictions distinct from the technical installation scope.
Delivery approach
Controlled from planning to close-out.
Verify the interface
Confirm the substrate, service type, penetration arrangement, required performance and approved detail.
Work under control
Follow the agreed permit, access, cleanliness and change-management process for the area.
Capture the detail
Record the completed system, product, location and any exception requiring technical review.
Relevant services
