Published studies focused on analyse the development of European
regulations regarding maintenance and fire protection, their differences, requirements,
strategies and implementation, are really scarce. For this reason, the present
study aims to develop a comparative analysis of the Regulation on Fire Safety
Installations in Spain and Portugal. For this, differences related to content and levels
of requirements are studied. Both regulations, leading in Europe, place special
emphasis on the participation of maintenance and installation companies, as well as
in the intervention of the Engineer as a competent technician in the field. As a
result, it could be concluded that programs that encourage the analysis of the degree
of effectiveness of fire protection regulations and their difficulties in their implementation
and adaptation to new technologies should be developed. Similarly, the
harmonization of requirements regarding regulation in fire protection within
European countries is considered very necessary, as well as the competencies of
engineers for the project writing with this scope.
