In the old residential complex, it is necessary for the society to have regular fire drills and maintain the fire management systems as per the directives. While the new constructions have to follow the legal framework of safety requirement to get an NOC from the fire department followed by the OC (occupation certificate). Apart from this, the developers can add value by selecting fire resistant material for constructions such as fire-resistant doors, sprinkler systems in parking and common areas of the residential complex. Builders and architects plan for the fire safety procedures during the design / construction phase, with respect to fire and smoke detection systems and fire alarm system.
