Architectural Fire Safety: a Handbook on Prevention through Design (Ptd) and Early Design Considerations as Per the Nbc of India

Abstract India’s rapid urbanization, coupled with the collaboration between international and Indian architects, has led to the delivery of globally recognized projects that adhere to various design and construction codes. This synergy plays a critical role in meeting evolving standards and ensuring that the design and construction process is streamlined, efficient, and compliant with both local and international regulations. Fire and life safety codes are pivotal in regulating building practices to prevent fires and safeguard lives. Architects, being at the heart of community development, play a vital role in integrating these safety regulations into their designs. The design process, with its multiple stages, must consistently align with fire and life safety requirements of the National Building Code of India. One of the primary challenges that often causes delays in architectural projects is the late incorporation of life safety considerations into the design.

To address this, the study suggests that architects take a proactive approach by prevention through design (PtD) by ensuring the Hazards are classified and the sustainable aspects of safety measures are embedded early in the design process, improving project timelines and ensuring compliance with the fire and life safety code.
