01

Start with the required performance

Provide the fire-resistance period, limiting temperature where available, specified product system and the coating schedule or steel section information.

02

Describe the actual starting condition

New primed steel, weathered steel and retained painted steel create different preparation risks. Primer identity and condition photographs are valuable.

03

Show how the work can be reached

Dimensions, elevations, obstructions, available platforms, live-site restrictions and intended work hours all influence the delivery plan.

Project note

Final product selection, thickness and acceptance criteria must follow the approved tested system, responsible design and project specification. This article is contractor guidance, not a substitute for project fire engineering.

Relevant local planning

Put this guidance into a local project context.

These planning guides help organise site, access, and programme information for suitable mobile work packages. They do not imply a permanent local office.
