CPD2026 | Enhancing Building Fire Safety: Passive Systems & UBBL Compliance

How can architects effectively bridge the gap between architectural aesthetics and life-saving containment barriers? In this technical PAM CPD Seminar, two prominent fire safety experts deliver concrete, practical guidance on structural fire safety, moving past basic checklists into robust physical execution. Ir. Mun Yew Fai opens the technical discourse by focusing on modern mechanical and structural gaps, detailing how to implement effective passive firestopping systems across complex utility penetrations and joints. Transitioning into the statutory framework, Ar. Chong Lee Siong deconstructs the prescriptive mandates of the Uniform Building By-Laws (UBBL), breaking down the real-world applications of fire-rated walls and perimeter enclosure systems. Viewers will walk away with deep insights into how to prevent vertical fire spread, maintain strict compartmentation integrity, and confidently secure fire safety clearances for modern building envelopes. 📅 Event Details: This seminar was recorded live on Saturday, 27th June 2026, from 9:00am to 12:30pm at Dewan Presiden, Level 2, PAM Centre, Bangsar, Kuala Lumpur.
