Will it be necessary to engage a Fire Safety Engineer to re-evaluate addition & alteration works to a performance-based designed building?
Where there are addition and alteration works in a performance based designed building, a Letter of No Objection must be submitted by the Qualified Person or Fire Safety Engineer (FSE) after determining that the proposed scope of works does not affect the performance-based (PB) design. The Letter of No Objection is to be submitted together with the building plan submission. If the proposed scope of work affects the performance-based design, a FSE must be engaged for submission of PB plans to SCDF. In-principle Agreement (IPA) must be obtained from SCDF prior to submission of PB building plans to SCDF.
