Fire Stopping & Passive Fire Protection Specialists in Hull.
Passive fire protection plays an essential role in a building’s overall fire safety strategy. Rather than detecting or extinguishing a fire, passive systems are incorporated into the building to help contain fire and smoke, maintain compartmentation and protect structural elements for the required period.
Bee Fire Protection works across Hull and the surrounding area, supporting projects ranging from new construction and refurbishment through to inspections, remedial works and ongoing fire safety maintenance.
Our Hull-based team works across commercial, industrial, education, healthcare, modular construction, high-rise, infrastructure and other regulated environments, providing solutions appropriate to the individual building, specification and application.
With multiple passive fire protection disciplines available through one specialist contractor, we can support both individual requirements and projects involving several different forms of passive fire protection.
Our Passive Fire Protection Services in Hull
Fire Stopping Hull
Fire stopping is one of Bee Fire Protection’s core services and is fundamental to maintaining effective compartmentation within a building.
Where pipes, cables, ducts and other building services pass through fire-rated walls and floors, they can create openings that compromise the original fire resistance of the compartment.
We install appropriate tested fire stopping systems to service penetrations, linear gaps and other openings, helping reinstate the required fire resistance and restrict the passage of fire and smoke.
All installations are completed in accordance with the relevant manufacturers’ tested systems and approved installation details, with appropriate documentation provided where required.
Fire Curtains Hull
Fire curtains and barriers can be used to maintain compartmentation and help restrict the spread of fire and smoke where conventional construction solutions may not be suitable.
Bee Fire Protection installs specialist fire curtain systems in accordance with manufacturers’ tested systems and installation requirements.
Our experience includes challenging applications where existing installations have failed or where complex building conditions require careful consideration of the appropriate tested solution.
Steel Column & Beam Encasements
Structural steel can lose strength rapidly when subjected to the high temperatures generated during a fire.
Fire-resistant board encasement systems provide a non-reactive method of protecting structural steelwork. Specialist boards are installed around beams and columns to create a protective enclosure, helping the steel achieve the required period of fire resistance.
Bee Fire Protection installs structural steel encasement systems in accordance with the appropriate tested specifications and manufacturer installation details.
Intumescent Painting in Hull
Intumescent coatings provide another method of protecting structural steelwork against the effects of fire.
These reactive coatings are applied to the steel and expand significantly when exposed to high temperatures, forming an insulating char that helps slow the rate at which the underlying steel heats up.
The correct system and coating thickness depend upon factors including the steel section, section factor and required period of fire resistance.
Bee Fire Protection provides specialist intumescent coating applications for structural steel on projects in Hull and throughout the UK.
Fire Walls, Partitions & Ceilings
Effective compartmentation can depend upon complete fire-resistant construction rather than individual penetration seals alone.
Bee Fire Protection installs fire walls, fire integrity partition systems and fire-rated ceilings to help maintain compartmentation and restrict fire spread through buildings.
Systems are installed strictly in accordance with the relevant manufacturers’ tested systems and approved installation details.
Passive Fire Protection Inspections & Audits
Existing passive fire protection can become damaged, altered or compromised as buildings change over time.
Our inspections and audits help identify defects, unsuitable installations and areas where existing passive fire protection may require remedial attention.
This can provide building owners, facilities managers and responsible organisations with a clearer understanding of the condition of passive fire protection measures within their property.
Ongoing Fire Safety Maintenance
Passive fire protection needs to remain effective throughout the life of the building.
Alterations, new services, maintenance work and general building changes can all affect existing compartmentation.
Bee Fire Protection provides ongoing fire safety maintenance to help clients identify and address passive fire protection issues as buildings continue to evolve.
Passive Fire Protection Experience in Hull
Bee Fire Protection is based in Hull and has delivered passive fire protection works on significant projects within the city.
ABP Hull Border Control
Bee Fire Protection was appointed by Spencer Engineering to carry out specialist fire curtain remediation works at the ABP Hull Border Control Post.
The existing installation had failed, requiring a compliant solution within a challenging plant-room environment.
The project involved five large vertical fire barrier zones, approximately 19 metres in length with 4-metre drops, within an area containing high volumes of moving air.
Bee developed a remediation approach using a tested and approved system appropriate to the application, completing the work while maintaining the required passive fire protection performance.
University of Hull
Bee Fire Protection has also delivered passive fire protection works at the University of Hull, including fire stopping to wall and floor penetrations together with fire asset reporting at the university’s Data Science, Artificial Intelligence and Modelling building.
This further demonstrates the team’s experience of working within demanding education and institutional environments where installation quality, documentation and compliance are particularly important.
