An area portfolio is a file of several documents that lists all the information related to the specific structure in a uniform and easy-to-read way.
It is the information intended to serve us in emergencies, such as accidents, malfunctions, etc.
The information can assist and is necessary for first responders, such as firefighters, and S&R, when the area portfolio contains and supplies them with all relevant information in the event of a structural fire.
Therefore, in an incident in the structure, an area portfolio can save the situation and be highly critical in these moments.
