The National Association of Rooflight Manufacturers (NARM) has updated its technical document NTD01– An introduction to natural daylight design through rooflighting in response to the issue of new Building Regulations for each of the devolved nations of the UK.
The updates cover fire safety aspects affecting rooflights, including: escape for building occupants; inhibition of the spread of fire; and structural integrity.
Outlines of fire classification of construction products/building elements and fire tests on building materials and structures are also included.
The document, now on version NTD01.3, is one of a series of comprehensive technical documents published by NARM – all of which are available for free download from the NARM website.
