What’s the Difference Between Type 2 and Type 4 Destructive Assessments?

Empty building with fire signs

Type 2 and 4 risk assessments are destructive assessments that can assess and report on the integrity of separating construction, validating appropriate fire separation throughout the building and façade surveys of sub-structure, fire barriers, insulation, membrane construction and waterproofing or ingress.

Type 2 fire risk assessments cover common parts and the inspection includes a degree of destructive exposure.

Type 4 fire risk assessments is a destructive assessment that incorporates all communal areas and 10% of the residential apartments, which is deemed to be a true reflection of the standard of fireproofing.
