Interior Ministry updates Civil Defence Guide at Milipol Qatar
During the Milipol Qatar 2026 exhibition, the Ministry of Interior showcased the third edition of the Civil Defense Technical Requirements Guide. This edition includes significant updates to the safety and protection standards for infrastructure, such as the installation of automatic sprinkler systems in industrial facilities and warehouses exceeding 1,115 square meters. It also regulates requirements for staircases and offers flexibility in the design of residential buildings, hotels, and worker housing. Additionally, the updates revise the methods for calculating building heights, with special conditions for adjoining buildings and exemptions for paint rooms in warehouses and factories smaller than 55 square meters. These updates aim to enhance public safety and reduce challenges in implementing fire prevention standards, while considering the nature of modifications to buildings that have previously received approval according to the specifications approved by Civil Defense.
