“Complex Premises will require a higher level of knowledge, understanding and, preferably experience on the part of the fire risk assessor. For such premises, there will be a need for the specific applied knowledge and skills of an appropriately qualified specialist. In such cases, evidence of specialist training and experience, or membership of a professional body, or certification by a third-party certificated body, need an appropriate knowledge of: The assessment of risk from fire (Appendix A), The applicable Legislation (Appendix B), Appropriate Guidance (Appendix C), Behaviour of fire in premises (Appendix D), Effects of fire on people and behaviour of people in fire situations (Appendix E), Means of escape (Appendix F), Fire Prevention (Appendix G), Fire Protection (Appendix H_includes Passive and Active fire protection) and Management of Fire Safety (Appendix I)”
