    Frequently asked

    What does this feature actually do?

    It answers questions about a UK fire-safety instrument using only propositions we have taken from that instrument's official text and recorded with an exact section or regulation reference. Every answer names the propositions it rests on. Questions can currently be answered for 6 instruments, covering 37 recorded propositions.

    Which instruments can it answer questions about?

    6 of the 6 instruments published in our library currently have verified propositions attached, so questions are answered only for those. Where an instrument has no verified propositions, the feature says so rather than answering from general knowledge.

    Are British Standards and PAS documents included?

    They are named for orientation only. We hold no authorised copy, so no clause, table or annex content is provided and no conformity outcome is given. A competent person must work from the licensed text.

    What does it cost?

    You can ask 3 questions per session at no cost. To continue in the same session we ask for your name and email address, which our team uses to reply to you about fire safety.

    Can I rely on the answers?

    No. This is not legal advice, not fire-engineering advice and not a compliance determination. Answers can be checked against the official source linked beside every proposition, and anything applied to a specific building must be reviewed by a competent person.

    Is the legislation shown as currently in force?

    No. We do not verify whether an instrument is in force, amended or repealed. Each proposition records the date we read the official source, and the official page is linked so you can check the current position.

    What this page is, and what it is not

    Page-level explanation of what this module does. Nothing below is a result of yours: nothing you have entered is read here, no building has been assessed, and so there is no evaluation date, no declared building context and no rule outcome to show.

    What this module does
    This module answers questions about one named UK instrument at a time, using only propositions recorded from that instrument, and cites the exact locator and official source page for each. It makes no determination about any building.
    AI role
    AI is used only to select which allowlisted recorded propositions are shown; it writes no compliance outcome and applies no standard.
    Licensed British Standards
    Licensed British Standards are named for orientation only. No authorised copy is held, so no clause, edition or conformity content is applied, interpreted or reproduced.

    How this module works

    answers only from propositions recorded for one named instrument, with a citation carrying the exact locator, the official source page and the date it was read. It adds no interpretation of its own and states no compliance outcome about any building.

    No instrument, standard, rule outcome or gate is pinned by this explanation. Where this module cites authority, it does so on its own page, from its own recorded register.

    Nothing on this page is a result of yours: no building has been assessed and no output has been produced here yet. Whatever this module does produce is a working draft made by software — never a fire risk assessment, safety case, statutory submission, certificate, professional opinion or approval by a competent person — and it must be reviewed by an appropriately competent person before any reliance or submission.

    Important — working aid only

    This output answers only from propositions recorded for one named instrument, with a citation carrying the exact locator, the official source page and the date it was read. It adds no interpretation of its own and states no compliance outcome about any building. AI is used only to select which allowlisted recorded propositions are shown; it writes no compliance outcome and applies no standard. Licensed British Standards are named for orientation only. No authorised copy is held, so no clause, edition or conformity content is applied, interpreted or reproduced. It is not a statutory Fire Risk Assessment, a safety case report, a Type 4 inspection, a submission to any regulator, legal advice, or sign-off by an appropriately competent professional. No reliance should be placed on it for submissions to the Building Safety Regulator, insurers or local authorities; the underlying duties remain with the duty-holder and their discharge requires review by a competent person. Magnus Opifex Seven Ltd accepts no liability for decisions taken solely on the basis of this output. To commission a deliverable prepared by a competent professional, please contact our team.
