In the article “Use of cladding in buildings here have grown in recent times: Experts” from Faris Mokhtar, Today Online (June 20, 2017) states that although there are benefits of cladding on a building, it can be a threat as it serves as a fire hazard.
Mokhtar (2017) states that the usage of cladding has shown to provide many benefits for the building. According to Assistant Professor Fadeyi (2017), cladding has shown to benefit in the reduction of energy consumption and the increases sustainability of the building. According to Assistant Professor Budig (2017), he mentions that Singapore practices another style of cladding which enhances the shade of the building.
However, usage of cladding has been contributing in the rapid spreading of fire as it endangers the fire safety in the building as the oxygenation could escalate the fire (Mokhtar, 2017). According to Mokhtar (2017), cladding may have contributed to the fire that struck the Grenfell Tower, which led to multiple fatalities.
Thesis statement
In recent times, some buildings with cladding in singapore have been tested to have non-Class'0' cladding. As such, more stringent rules and fire test should be implemented. These stringent rules are critical to the fire safety of the building and the prevention of another cladding related fire.
