Can someone explain the modified 30 minute standard of fire protection? I know it applies to one storey conversions, no more than 2 habitable rooms and/or a total area not exceeding 50m squared. How does it differ from the standard 30 min protection? Martin

I'm doing a presentation on loft conversions, yippee!!! I realise the loft floor requires strengthening, but how is that carried out? What are the differences with traditional purlin/rafter roofs and trussed roofs regarding floor strength? Any help is greatly appreciated. Martin
