A fire strategy report is a detailed document that explains how a building will perform in the event of a fire. It forms the foundation of fire safety design and is often required at planning or Building Control stage.
In simple terms, it answers one key question:
“How will this building keep people safe if a fire occurs?”
It covers how occupants escape, how fire is contained, and how emergency services can respond effectively.
Fire strategies are developed in line with Approved Document B of the Building Regulations 2010, which provides guidance on fire safety in buildings.
A fire strategy report brings together all key elements of fire safety into one structured document.
This typically includes:
Safe and practical escape routes, travel distances and exit provisions.
Design measures that prevent fire spreading within the building.
Systems designed to detect fire early and warn occupants.
Solutions to manage smoke and maintain safe escape conditions.
Fire resistance of structural elements to prevent collapse.
Access routes and facilities for fire and rescue services.
Assessment of risks from external walls and nearby buildings.
All of these elements align with the requirements of Approved Document B and industry best practice.
