- Rules of Engagement Management for M&E Trades
We are committed to ensuring the highest standards of safety and compliance in all our operations, especially in the area of fire stopping and fire compartmentation. As a key player in the Mechanical and Electrical (M&E) trades, we understand the criticality of proper fire stopping techniques in preventing the spread of fire, smoke, and toxic gases.
What we provide
Firestopping involves the use of various systems and materials to seal off openings and joints in fire-resistance-rated wall and floor assemblies, thereby containing fires within the area of origin and preventing their spread to other parts of the building. The process is a crucial aspect of building construction and maintenance, and its importance cannot be overstated.
Our approach to fire stopping is guided by a set of rules of engagement that govern how we interact with all stakeholders involved in a project from the very start of the project – from contractors and builders to architects and building owners. These rules ensure that every task we undertake aligns with industry best practices and adheres to the strictest safety standards.
Why choose us
We recognise that each trade involved in a project has unique requirements and challenges. For the M&E trades, these could range from the need to run cables and pipes through fire-rated walls and floors, to working in confined spaces or dealing with live electrical components. Our rules of engagement are designed to address these challenges, providing clear guidelines on aspects such as communication, coordination, and compliance.
