Fire Risk Assessment – Tiffany

Challenges

As the tallest building in Europe The Shard dominates the London skyline as is a completely unique building in terms of location, the various buildings use and the fire strategy. With such a unique building any fire risk arrangements need to consider the buildings fire strategy.

Tiffany have become a household name and epitomise quality, to this end Tiffany wanted a fire risk assessment and arrangements that tied into the Tiffany’s, well established, safety management system.

Solution

Safety Advisors have been involved with fire management in the building for many years and are very knowledgeable in both the fire strategy for the building and the City of London Fire and Rescue’s requirements for high rise buildings.

We put together the original fire risk assessment for the building and so were able to use that knowledge to undertake the fire risk assessment for Tiffany. We undertake ongoing reviews of the fire risk assessment and the arrangements in place to ensure they remain suitable for this very prestigious client.

We were also involved in the fire management during the construction phase of the office and so worked closely with the PC to ensure the fire strategy for the building was maintained.
