Notes on Passive Fire Protection (PFP)
1. PFP offers protection against the adverse thermal effects
of fire for a defined period and a defined degree of
exposure.
2. PFP should not be considered as a replacement for
active firefighting or lead to relaxation of normal design
requirements (spacing and layout considerations) or
precautions in operation and maintenance.

Intumescent Paint
A coating which reacts to heat by swelling in a controlled manner to many
times its original thickness to produce a carbonaceous foam, which acts as
an insulating layer to protect the steel substrate.

AOC Design Philosophy
I) Source:
• Rainwater
• Firewater
• Wash water not govern
II) Design Scenario:
1) Rainwater + Minimum Dry Weather Flow
2) Firewater
3) Rainwater + Firewater (Very rare case, depends on project
requirement)
From Firewater Demand Study
39. Petroliam Nasional Berhad (PETRONAS) |
Firewater Demand Study
• Fire Zone
• Firewater Demand
Assumption:
Fire incident only
occurs within one Fire
Zone at one time.
