The use of profiled steel cladding sheets, insulated on the building side and finished accordingly is common in external wall construction for a wide range of building types. In certain situations the walls so constructed are required to provide for fire protection and in these cases specific Building Regulations concerned with fire safety have to be complied with. Currently there are a number of profiled steel sheet systems available and each one constitutes a proprietary design but there is sufficient similarity in the designs to develop generic solutions based on current knowledge from fire testing and fire experience. This publication has therefore been prepared as an authoritative guide on external wall design utilising profiled steel sheets with the objective of establishing the basic design as meeting the requirements of the regulations thus obviating the need for repetitive testing. However, where any design is beyond the scope given in this document recourse to validation of performance by testing or by assessment is necessary. |
