locate any special area of exposure hazard which may call for a greater or lesser boundary distance than has been obtained from Stage 4, and to determine the final distance of the building from the ‘relevant boundary’.

This new edition of BR 187 describes different methods for calculating adequate space separation between buildings and has been prepared in support of national building regulations. Several sections, including flame projection from windows, have been expanded. Specifically this new edition: • merges the two parts into a single narrative

2014年6月16日 · While the risk of fire spread between buildings cannot be eliminated completely, the aim of calculating building separation distances is to ensure that ignition of a building adjacent to a fire is sufficiently delayed to allow the Fire Service to arrive on site and take preventative action.This new edition of BR 187, in support of national ...

During the revision of BRE Report BR 187 (External fire spread: building separation and boundary distances)[1], it became apparent that the methodology and some of the assumptions may not be valid for some features in modern buildings. This Information Paper therefore reviews existing fire compartment temperature calculation methods and presents

The 68 page guide BR 187 describes methods for calculating adequate space separation between buildings. BR 187 was first published in 1991, when it was a two-part guide. Now in its second edition, it has been merged into one part, and substantially updated and improved: It has expanded sections, including flame projection from windows.

Replaces report BR 187 (1991). BRE is a building science centre that generates new knowledge through research. This is used to create products, tools and standards that drive positive change across the built environment.
