520 _aSeries of five articles looking at protection systems. "Integration issues" looks at the difficulties surrounding the integration of fire detection and alarm systems with other building controls. "Screen test" suggests the design and selection of fire screens involves a careful balance between aesthetics and performance. "Cladding confusion" argues that responsible persons may be confused when assessing roofing and cladding risks because of new legislation, changes in the insurance sector and only partial use of Euroclasses. "Building solutions" calls for a more holistic approach to fire protection as the UK moves towards performance-based building codes. "To B or not to B" outlines the findings of an informal consultation on possible changes to Part B of the Building Regulations.
