The long awaited update to the T section of SANS 10400 (Application of the Building Standards Act) has been sent out for public comment.
Working groups will soon be assessing all comments received and bringing the standard to its final acceptance. Publication will follow.
This will bring several changes to the fire detection industry as the use of evacuation systems has been reinstated into the requirements as well as more specific details as to where fire detection should be installed.
We urge the SABS to bring this draft to publication as soon as possible.
