Dubai Developers Align With New Dubai Building Code At Windows Doors & Facades 2017
The second edition of the Windows Doors & Facades exhibition will present innovative and globally leading solutions to address new requirements announced by the Buildings Department at the Dubai Municipality.
The new directive prohibits the use of flammable materials and components that hinder fire resistance in facades. The announcement is part of the Municipality’s ongoing efforts to develop construction practices through the application of the highest international standards that guarantee security and safety of Dubai’s high-rise residents. The new measures come to play following a number of global and regional blazes which revamped debate on the implementation of fire safety regulations in high-rise towers.
