Fire risk assessment in UK:

In the UK FRAs are required by law in all commercial premises.  But the FRAs are not the same as described in NFPA 551.  The principles remain the same but the practical application is more routine and simple.

There is guidance in the UK on how a FRA should be carried out and this gives a framework that can be followed but there are many interpretations of exactly how the details of the process should be conducted and so FRAs can take many forms in the UK.
