Due to technical issues when this session was run previously this will be a chance to view the recording of the previous session.

This session aims to give attendees a good understanding of the key terminology used by property insurers in their statements of fact and to look at insurers concerns regarding these issues.

Whilst the session is intended for those who are relatively inexperienced in property insurance, it will also provide a good refresher for the more experienced.

Objectives By the end of this session, attendees will be able to:

- Demonstrate an understanding of common construction terminology including “standard construction”, “non- combustible”, “timber framed” and “Composite Panels”.

- Identify some common building materials and state whether they are combustible or non-combustible.

- Explain what the IEE/IET Regulations are and show a basic understanding of electrical inspection requirements

- Describe the property insurance issues associated with portable heaters, recharging of forklift truck batteries, listed buildings, flat roofs and flammable substances

- Explain what insurers normal expectations would be regarding basic fire protection measures including fire extinguishers.
