## Description
The appointed contractor shall be required to carry out a suitable and sufficient assessment of the fire resisting elements and compartmentation lines of specified multi-occupied residential buildings.
Each intrusive survey and fire risk assessment of the fire resisting elements and compartmentation lines shall consider a number of factors, including the following:
•	The type of evacuation strategy adopted in the building, i.e. simultaneous, staged, phased or ‘stay put’.
•	The height of the building.
•	The vulnerability of occupants.
•	Fire protection measures within the building (e.g. compartmentation, automatic fire suppression, automatic fire detection).
•	Apparent quality of construction, or presence of building defects.
•	The combustibility of the building structure and the use of modern methods of construction, such as timber framing.
•	The number and location of escape routes.
•	The complexity of the building.
Intrusive surveys and sampling will be required to provide suitable and sufficient information on:
•	The construction and condition of the fire resisting elements and compartmentation lines within the buildings.
•	The construction and condition of any interactions or connections of two or more fire resisting elements within the buildings, including inspection of service penetrations both above-ceiling, below-floor, or within risers.
•	The construction and condition of any current fire stopping within the buildings.
•	The construction and condition of any risers within the building, including those internally within flats.
•	The construction and condition of any cavity barrier located around window openings (located under window sills).
•	The construction and condition of any hidden voids, ceiling/floor voids, or inaccessible areas.
The appointed contractor shall undertake a visual survey of each building in scope on appointment.  The appointed contractor will undertake intrusive surveys within the common parts of each building and within the residential flats.
The appointed contractor shall develop a suitable sampling strategy for each building which considers:
•	The extent of intrusive surveys recommended within the common parts of the buildings.
•	The extent and number of intrusive surveys recommended within the residential flats of each buildings.
•	Any requirements for specialist access equipment to fulfil the requirements of this scope.
•	Any requirements to seek independent, third-party test data on any materials used in the construction of the buildings
•	Areas where the integrity of fire resisting elements and compartmentation lines is critical but cannot be confirmed visually. This includes assessing:
•	Construction that separates individual flats from the escape route.
•	Compartmentation between individual flats.
•	Separation between common areas and other parts of the building.
•	The specific risks of the building, including:
•	The quality of existing information, such as building plans.
•	Signs of potential defects found ...
