COPE
Construction
combustible construction, composite panels, Open storage
Occupancy
Hazardous Processes e.g. deep fat fryers, exposable dusts, hydraulic
equipment, Use of flammable solvent / chemicals etc
Protection:
Existing Management Controls – e.g. hot work permits,
housekeeping
Physical Protection – e.g. automatic sprinklers, equipment
interlocks, Detector system, Fire Extinguishers, Security etc

23. FOAM PLASTIC Sandwich Panel
Poly-isocyanurate / Glass Wool (Class B)
Polyurethane (Class C)
Polystyrene (Expanded EPS and Extruded XPS) –
(Class D)
Note: Establish the insulation type, else it will fall under
Class D construction
23Eng " Essam Osman "
24. Combustible Panel – Loss Control
Chose safe system of work,
Permit to work systems for welding, abrading, and drilling.
Do not Fix Electrical or heating equip to such panels.
All electrical wiring should be contained within either armoured
cabling or metal conduit.
Flue or chimney venting/passing through a roof area or elevation
should be truncated to avoid direct heat to the panel surface.
Regular checks, no discolouration of the panel where either a
flue or electrical services are passing through.
Repair immediately any Surface damage of the panel
Impact damage, by forklift provide crash barriers or impact
skirting.
Where possible replaced with panels of a non-combustible
nature, such as Rock wool.
