Jack Atkinson Posted April 8, 2021 Report Share Posted April 8, 2021 Hi, I hope you can help? Should service riser cupboards in tall buildings (above two stories) have fire stopping fitted between the levels to establish compartmentation? I was under the impression they should if they were taller than two stories high yet I’m carrying some work out in a hotel and I can see all of the way down from the top (4th floor) to the bottom (ground floor). The riser shaft does have fd30 doors fitted at each access point but I was still under the impression that they required between level stopping? The riser shaft is situated in a communal corridor to the hotel outside of hotel room entrances. Thanks, Jack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Sutton Posted April 10, 2021 Report Share Posted April 10, 2021 My understanding is if the shaft is a protected shaft is does not require compartmenting at each floor level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
