In Saudi Arabia’s most ambitious architectural projects, from soaring towers in Riyadh to luxury hotels in Jeddah, architectural metal works define the standard of quality and modern design. This is not the same as structural steel, which forms the building’s skeleton.

The installation of Fire-Board systems—from walls to steel encasement—is a critical step in making a building safe. But passive fire protection is not a “set it and forget it” system. Its integrity is constantly at risk from post-construction work, such as new cable installations, minor renovations, or even simple wear and tear. A 2-hour rated wall with a new, unsealed …

In Saudi Arabia, the Saudi Building Code (SBC), particularly SBC 201 (Fire Protection), is the law governing building safety. A core principle of the SBC is “compartmentation”—the division of a building into fire-resistant compartments. Fire-Boards are the primary material used to build these compartments, but simply using a board with a “fire-rated” sticker is not enough to be compliant. The …
