Synopsis

EMB-170 Captain reported a flap/slat failure approaching the destination. All QRH checklists were completed; ATC assist was requested; FA's and dispatch notified and a safe landing was accomplished.

Narrative

On arrival into ZZZ we began slowing early to accommodate a runway inspection in progress for Runway XX. When selecting flaps 2 we received the Flap Fail EICAS indication (Slats 3; Flaps 1) We were around 2;000 ft. and executed a soft go-around; notified tower; and began running the Flap Fail QRH. We requested delay vectors from ATC; notified the Flight Attendants (FA) and Dispatch; and ATC. We determined that based on the factored landing distance; available runway length; and field conditions it was not necessary to declare an emergency. We communicated the situation to ATC and requested to have the trucks on standby as a precaution for hot brakes. We advised the FA's of our flap failure; time remaining; expect a normal landing; faster than normal approach; and the likelihood of emergency vehicles on standby. After completing the Flap Fail QRH and Flap Fail Descent checklist ATC recleared us for the approach to Runway XX. We completed the Flap Fail Landing checklist and landed without incident. On arrival at the gate my First Officer (FO) spoke with Crash Fire Rescue and communicated to them that brake temps were normal and decreasing.
