Fire safety is a critical aspect in multi-residential construction. Walls that separate residences are the major element in multi-residential construction relating to fire safety. Recent changes to the Standard Building Regulation (1993) have seen fire safety included as a major aspect that must be checked at the Final Inspection Stage for a Class 1a Building. Incorrect construction or lack of consideration given to separating wall systems can expose building contractors to excessive rectification bills.

Fire Separation Walls

• Should extend completely to the underside of the roof
• Mineral fibre should be in place between the wall and to the underside of the roof sheeting
• Should be fully sealed to the roof with no penetrations
• Should have no timber penetrations except for roof battens greater than 75X50mm
• There should be no gap greater than 50mm between the wall and underside of the roof which should be packed with mineral fibre

A Fire Separation Wall is a wall with appropriate resistance to spread of fire that divides a storey or building into a fire compartment -  stud wall that divides an interior space without bearing any load
