Hi
scenario
50 metre protected hospital service corridor which is a designated escape route. Off the corridor there is a mortuary, laundry, plant room, postal sorting office, sewing room and supplies. all the rooms have fire doors with hold open devices. All the rooms have alternative escape either to outside or into a different compartment.
Supplies have had a lot of their storage space taken over by a conference room...so supplies have packed the service corridor with stores all along the length of wall. This corridor is also home to metal crates and wheelie bins full of confidential shredded paper waste in paper bags.
There is also shed loads of oxidising agent stored in there.
There are about 50 people working off this corridor
There is an L1 fire alarm system about to be commisioned (it was L2)
The firecode states that there should not be any storage in means of escape corridors or hospital streets
If carrying out a FRA of this corridor...lets say the ignition sources are, plant room, electrical equipment in the rooms (computers etc) the laundry and of course arson...would you class this as low risk as the guy who did the last risk assessment assessed it as (done by means of a matrix system)
cheers
