PECULIARITIES OF ENSURING FIRE SAFETY OF PUBLIC BUILDINGS BY IMPROVING FIRE PROTECTION

One of the most important tasks to protect the life and health of citizens, as well as the safety of material assets, is to ensure the fire safety of public buildings. Innovative technical solutions in the construction industry, which are characterized by an increase in the area of buildings and an increase in the number of people, require the development and implementation of advanced fire protection technologies. Here are considered the current approaches to ensuring fire safety in public buildings, including automated fire protection systems, the rational use of architectural and structural solutions and the competent use of materials for better fire protection. It is based on an analysis of the current regulatory framework of the Russian Federation governing the design and operation of fire protection systems. Special attention is paid to improving the effectiveness of organizational measures. The need for an integrated approach is emphasized, which is based on the interaction of designers of public buildings, supervisory authorities and preventive work, and people responsible for putting buildings into operation. The findings can be used in the preparation of design documentation and the development of control and supervisory measures for public buildings.
