This final thesis gives a concise review of fire protection with an emphasis on preventive fire protection measures in construction. Proper selection of building materials, construction elements and structures with regard to their fire resistance and proper design of the building meet the basic requirements of fire protection of buildings. As an example of undertaken fire protection measures in construction, an existing facility is reviewed. Adopted measures taking into account technological processes, substances that are used in the work, work principle, storage and size of the building itself are considered. A realistic perception of potential danger and damage that fire can cause is obtained, as well as of the importance of undertaken fire protection measures, which reduce danger to a minimum and ensure safety to workers, property and the environment in case of fire. At the end is a short review of fire safety law and guidance documents which are used for regulation of fire protection measures in construction.
