Fire Rated Doors Are Vital For Hospitals
2
Hospitals call for the highest safety measure in
the event of catastrophe that can otherwise be
prevented, like a fire breaking out inside the
building. Similar to any structure, hospitals are
also beset with a challenge that has to do with
the high population that occupy the building.
3
As patients are sick people where some of them
are not very mobile, the installation of fire
resistant doors near patient wards. The provision
of these doors can help people to evacuate from a
floor where fire has spread already.
4
Why is a fire door essential? These are special
types of doors that will withstand extreme
temperatures, they will not be burned with other
materials and keep other people in adjacent rooms
safe until they can find egress. Most hospitals
have emergency staff knowledgeable about the
layout of each floor of the hospital.
5
There can just be a problem when these people
become busy rescuing and leading people to egress
that the other parts of the hospital with
patients can be left unattended.
6
The people can panic when they are informed that
there's a fire in certain parts of the building.
For this reason, the standards set for hospitals
in terms of passive fire protection. Thus, the
use of fire resistant doors is imperative in
buildings like hospitals where many people are
present at any given time.
7
Hospital fire safety should have the right
training so that the staff will have the proper
knowledge on how to conduct themselves during a
fire emergency. Evacuating patients won't be easy
in this particular scenario and it becomes more
difficult when the staff would not know where to
exit these people.
8
It should be understood by the staff that when
smoke creeps fast into other locations inside the
hospital, fire will be sure to follow it. But
when there's a door that cannot be penetrated by
smoke because it has special seals, then smoke
cannot spread and therefore, fire can be
contained in one area.
9
Long corridors in the hospital should have fire
resistant doors at the stairwell that leads to
other floors. There's usually a fire exit sign
that will be placed where these doors are, a
warning for people to take heed when emergency
strikes and fire is spreading into several rooms.
10
Medical gas, such as oxygen, is not combustible
in itself. Yet, when there's ignition and
material to burn, then fire can be enhanced by
the presence of oxygen. It will be possible that
medical gas pipelines can be leaking.
11
When fire has broken into rooms with leaking
oxygen, combustion can be vigorous which can lead
to a larger fire. It would be vital to secure
compressed gas lines but the only one who can do
this is the personnel in charge of emergencies.
12
There must be a precise shutdown of the equipment
so that oxygen leaking will stop and the hospital
fire can easily be contained. Staff should know
that evacuation may be vertical or horizontal. A
fire door will be able to contain smoke and fire
so people can move to locations where they may be
safer until fire rescue can be obtained.
