Passive fire protection measures are equally important in low to medium rise dwelling houses, such as semi-detached homes, terraced houses, townhouses and apartments as they are in multi-storey developments.

This risk of fire spread exists when electrical and mechanical services are installed through walls, ceilings and floors or an open path within concealed cavities is left unprotected. This can result in a serious reduction in the fire rating and the ability of the structure to limit and resist fire spread.
