The Standards D1 Application of Part D D1.1 – D2.2 D D1.1 This Part sets out the required standards for Regulation 12. D1.2 The Standards apply to all buildings, unless specified otherwise. D1.3* The level of fire safety performance of a building element or component is specified in terms of its - a. resistance to fire; and b. reaction to fire. Note: Alternative “Deemed to Satisfy Provisions” are provided for D1.3 setting out methods of establishing levels of fire safety performance in terms of either fire tests specified in British Standards or European harmonised fire tests. D2 Structural protection PRINCIPLES D2.1* In order to enable the occupants of a building to reach a place of safety and to ensure that fire-fighters engaged in rescue or fire-fighting operations are not placed at undue risk, the elements of structure in a building must have a level of fire safety performance (see D1.3) which meets the requirements of Table 1 or Table 2 to this standard, except - a. an element of structure in a single storey building which does not form part of, or support, a separating wall, compartment wall, or the enclosing structure of a protected zone; b. a floor consisting of removable panels situated directly above a floor which is an element of structure; c. a gallery floor; d. an openwork floor; e. a catwalk; f. the lowest floor of a building. Note: Table 1 to D2.1 must be used for a single storey building, or the single storey part of a multistorey building where the single storey part is a separate compartment or compartments. Table 2 to D2.1 must be used for all other buildings. D2.2 Where an element of structure provides support to another element of structure, a compartment wall, a compartment floor, a separating wall, a separating floor, the enclosing structure of a protected zone, a flat roof, an access deck or an external wall, to which a higher standard applies, the element of structure must meet that higher standard. 7D Amdt: September 2001
