The register offers 200 empty rows per category, status options, and 14 formula-based key performance indicators. The empty original shows zero registrations. No macros, personal data, or fictitious register entries are included.

How to use the firestopping templates

1. Give each physical penetration a unique ID and note the property, fire compartment boundary, and relevant fire safety drawing. Do not invent a fire technical class.
2. Document visible deficiencies only from safe access. External observation is not a professional inspection.
3. Order the relevant assessment and firestopping work with a clear document reference. The professional installer determines the system choice and technical method based on the actual construction and approved documentation.
4. Record the actually performed work and link it to actual product/system documentation and the installer's report.
5. Close only after separate expert verification where required and save the actual inspection report.

Swedish regulations for fire separation and penetrations

The Act (2003:778) on Protection Against Accidents, Chapter 2, Section 2 states that owners or rights holders shall take, to a reasonable extent, the measures necessary to prevent fire and hinder or limit damage from fire. The Swedish Building Regulations on fire safety BFS 2024:7 as amended, including BFS 2025:10, describe fire compartment boundaries and fire-separating constructions. The concept of fire separation also includes penetrations and connections to other building parts.

Important: Fire technical class, type of sealing product, and applicable installation requirements must always be determined by relevant design, classification basis, and expert assessment. The application of the regulations may differ for existing buildings, new construction, and alterations, and may in some cases be subject to transitional provisions.

Administrative template – not a professional certificate. The package is not an installation manual, material selection manual, fire resistance test, CE declaration, or approval of EI class. No technical fire safety is automatically verified by filling out the documents.

Frequently asked questions about firestopping

What is a fire compartment penetration?

It is a passage for, for example, pipes, cables, or other installations through a building part with a fire-separating function. The actual performance must preserve the intended fire safety function.

How do you document firestopping?

Give the penetration a unique ID, link it to the correct fire compartment drawing, and collect the performance report, product/system documentation, photo reference, and relevant professional inspection in a traceable issue.

Is an order proof of approved firestopping?

No. Order, actual performance, handover, and technical inspection are followed as separate events.

Can I choose the EI class and sealing material myself using the templates?

No. They are intended for administration. The class and system should be obtained from valid design and relevant expert documentation.

Is this the same as fire door inspection or fire damper testing?

No. Fire doors and fire dampers constitute separate installation types. This package focuses on penetrations and seals in fire-separating building parts.

Are the PDF files interactive?

They are searchable and suitable for printing but are not promised as electronically fillable forms. Use Word for editing and Excel for registers.

Which languages are included?

Five Swedish work templates, one Swedish guide, and a separate English user guide. The Swedish templates are not fully translated into English.
