FSSD Submission
Under Singapore's Fire Safety Act, any proposed renovation, partitioning, or alteration to fire protection systems requires formal plan approval from the SCDF (commonly known as an FSSD submission) before physical work can begin.
When Is a Plan Submission Required?
Additions & Alterations (A&A): Erecting or shifting partition walls, meeting rooms, or ceiling layouts that affect escape paths.
Fire Protection Alterations: Relocating or adding fire sprinkler heads, heat/smoke detectors, or hose reels.
Mechanical Ventilation: Installing or re-routing kitchen exhaust hoods and air-conditioning ducting across fire-rated walls.
Change of Use: Reclassifying premises operations (e.g., retail to F&B or warehouse to industrial).
End-to-End Submission Coordination
By law, statutory plans must be endorsed and submitted by an SCDF-registered Qualified Person (QP); an Architect or Professional Engineer.
