A common enquiry from building surveyors is to establish the construction of industrial metal cladding and confirm or discount the use of composite cladding panels which in certain circumstances can result in a perceived increase in fire risk. 

Tee Technical can undertake a visual inspection to establish if the construction is either a composite panel or a built-up system. 

Where composite panels are identified there is a need to establish the type of insulation used and if a fire retardant was used. This requires a visual inspection supplemented where necessary by the removal of samples of insulation for subsequent laboratory analysis to determine the nature of the insulation and presence of a fire retardant.
