Airports provide a unique challenge when it comes to fire safety, they combine the complexities of open atriums with compartmentalized secure spaces. Therefore, the ability to securely section off smoke and fire in the case of an emergency is a necessity.
Flexible smoke and fire opening protectives provide many advantages over a stand-alone, complex, smoke exhaust system. Deployable fire-rated opening protectives provide effective protection around elevators or integrated into an atrium design. Plus, they do so at reduced costs.
A fire and smoke management system must be implemented to allow time for occupants to evacuate safely in the event of an emergency. However, keeping smoke and fire under control in the event of an emergency can be problematic when an atrium is involved.
