Fire Safety
Preventive Measures Protective Measures
(adopted to detect and warn fire forecast) (adopted to extinguish fire and minimize damage)
Fire Detection System (FDS) Fire Alarm System (FAS)
Fire Detection and Alarm System (FDAS)
Automatic Manual
(Activate themselves
automatically)
(Activated by Manual Call Point)
Fire Safety Assurance System
FDAS Based on Technical Feature
Addressable Conventional
(Microprocessor based intelligent system. Control panel
communicates with each addressable device individually.)
(Usually not based on Microprocessor. Panel can
only identify if any detector triggers in a zone.)
Types of FDAS
Different Types of FDS Devices
i) Optical or Ionization Smoke Detector
ii) Multi Sensor Detector
iii) Heat Detector
iv) Reflective Beam Smoke Detector
v) Air Sampling Smoke Detector
vi) UV/IR Flame Detector
vii) Spark/Ember Detector
viii)Duct Smoke Detector
ix) Gas Leakage Detector
x) Video Image Smoke Detector

Occupancy
Every building or portion there of shall be classified according to its use or
character of occupancy. A brief description of such occupancy groups is
discussed at BNBC 2020 (Part-III, Chapter-I, Page: 2629-2631).
Table 3.1.1: Summary of Occupancy Classification (BNBC 2020: Part-III, Chapter-I, Page: 2629-2631)
Occupancy Type Subdivision Nature of Use or Occupancy Fire Index
A: Residential
A1 Single family dwelling 1
A2 Two families dwelling 1
A3 Flats or apartments 1
A4 Mess, boarding houses, dormitories and hostels 1
A5 Hotels and lodging houses 1
B: Educational Facilities
B1 Educational facilities up to higher secondary levels 1
B2 Facilities for training and above higher secondary education 1
B3 Pre-school facilities 1
D: Healthcare Facilities
D1 Normal medical facilities 2
D2 Emergency medical facilities 2
H: Storage Buildings
H1 Low fire risk storage 3
H2 Moderate fire risk storage 3
J: Hazardous Building
J1 Explosion hazard building 4
J2 Chemical hazard building 4
J3 Biological hazard building 4
J4 Radiation hazard building 4
Building Classification
Table 3.1.2: Summary of Classification of Buildings Based on Types of Construction
BNBC 2020: Part-III, Chapter-I, Page: 2631
Construction Group Construction Type Description
Group I: Non-combustible
Type I-A 4 hour protected
Type I-B 3 hour protected
Type I-C 2 hour protected
Type I-D 1 hour protected
Type I-E Unprotected
Group II: Combustible
Type II-A Heavy timber
Type II-B Protected wood joist
Type II-C Unprotected wood joist
Type II-D Protected wood frame
Type II-E Unprotected wood frame
Integration of Fire Detection & Alarm System
• Interface between fire alarm system and fire fighting which means we can
interface through monitor module which includes fire fighting devices (if
provisions available) like flow switch, fire hose reel and fire pump/diesel
pump status, Supervisory gate valve, zone control valves.
Integration of Fire Detection & Alarm System
Types of Integration Devices
Input Unit Output Unit
(used to connect non-addressable
devices)
Integration Devices
(used to control lift, cut off
power etc.)
Input/Output Unit
(Used where both functions are
required)
1. Diesel Engine Run
2. Electric Pump Run
3. Jockey Pump Run
4. Electric Pump Reversal
5. Electric Pump Motor Trouble
6. Electric Pump Controller Trouble
7. Pump Room Trouble
8. Electric Pump Suction Riser Close
9. PRV Water Flow
10. Hydrant Riser Close
11. Sprinkler Riser Close etc.
Some Types of Input Modules
1. Fire Door Interfacing
2. Lift/ Elevator Interfacing
3. Exhaust Fan/ Basement Ventilation Fan Interfacing
4. PAVA System Interfacing
5. HVAC System Interfacing
6. Fire Curtain Interfacing
7. Fire Damper/ Smoke Damper Interfacing
8. Sprinkler System Interfacing
9. Fire Suppression System Interfacing etc.
Some Types of Output Modules
Fire Detection and Alarm System Drawings
Fire Alarm System Inspection Procedure
Step 1: Put the fire alarm system on test (if it is externally monitored)
Step 2: Activate one of the fire alarm call points
Step 3: Confirm operation of the alarm sounders and any other connected equipment
such as magnetic door holders
Step 4: Reset the call point
Step 5: Reset the fire alarm panel
Step 6: Take the fire alarm system off test (if monitored)
Code & Rules and Regulation
Code & Rules and Regulation Followed :
a. BNBC -2006 (Old Building )
b. BNBC -2020 ( Proposed /Newly constructed Building)
c. Fire Act -2003
d. Fire Rules -2014 (Revised is on going)
e. NFPA -72 (2019 Edition)
