Event details

Smoke is still the leading cause of fire-related deaths, and effective smoke control can be the difference between a safe evacuation and a devastating outcome. In this webinar Advanced’s Shaun Scott will walk delegates through the critical role of smoke control in modern buildings and what “good” looks like in practice.

The session will explore how smoke control supports life safety, property protection and firefighting access, before unpacking the key differences between natural and mechanical systems, pressurisation, extraction and compartmentation strategies. Shaun will also outline how to apply the UK’s regulatory framework in real projects – including Approved Document B, the BS EN 12101 series, BS 7346‑8, BS 9999/9991 and recent changes following Grenfell and the Building Safety Act.

Drawing on real-world design and installation challenges, the webinar will highlight common pitfalls, building owner responsibilities, and the importance of competent maintenance and third‑party certification. Delegates will leave with clearer insight into how to design, specify, inspect or maintain smoke control systems that perform when it counts.

Ideal for: fire engineers, consultants, risk assessors, building control professionals, housing providers, facilities managers and contractors involved in fire and life safety.


All attendees will receive a CPD certificate.
