Building Design & Layout

Fire protection engineers work closely with architects and other stakeholders during the design phase of construction projects to incorporate fire safety features into building layouts.
They consider factors such as building occupancy, size, layout, and construction materials to develop fire-resistive designs that minimize the spread of fire and smoke.

Fire Suppression Systems

Fire protection engineers design and specify various fire suppression systems to extinguish fires or control their spread within buildings.
This may include automatic fire sprinkler systems, fire suppression agents such as foam or gas, fire extinguishers, and fire hose reels strategically located throughout the building.

Smoke Control Systems

In addition to fire suppression, fire protection engineers design smoke control systems to manage the movement of smoke within buildings during a fire.
These systems may include smoke exhaust systems, smoke barriers, pressurization systems, and smoke management strategies to protect occupants and facilitate evacuation.

Emergency Egress Planning

Fire protection engineers analyze building layouts and occupancy characteristics to design effective emergency egress systems that allow occupants to evacuate safely during a fire.
This includes specifying the location and design of exits, emergency lighting, exit signage, and evacuation routes to ensure clear and unobstructed pathways to safety.

What We Offer

Customized Fire Protection Solutions for Every Project.

Fire Alarm & Detection Systems
- - Fire protection engineers design fire alarm and detection systems to provide early warning of fires and prompt evacuation of occupants.
  - These systems may include smoke detectors, heat detectors, flame detectors, fire alarm panels, and audible/visual notification devices to alert building occupants and emergency responders.
Passive Fire Protection
- - Fire protection engineers specify passive fire protection measures to enhance the fire resistance of building elements and compartments.
  - This may include fire-rated walls, doors, windows, and structural elements designed to withstand fire exposure and prevent the spread of flames and smoke.
Code Compliance & Permitting
- - Fire protection engineers ensure that fire protection designs and installations comply with relevant building codes, standards, and regulations.
  - They prepare construction drawings, specifications, and documentation required for regulatory approval and permitting, and they may work with local authorities to obtain necessary permits and inspections.
Construction Oversight
- - During the construction phase, fire protection engineers provide technical support and oversight to ensure that fire protection systems are installed correctly according to design specifications.
  - They collaborate with contractors, fire protection contractors, and construction teams to address any issues or challenges that arise during installation and commissioning of fire protection systems.

Summary

In summary, fire protection engineering is essential for ensuring the safety and resilience of buildings and structures against the threat of fire. By integrating fire protection measures into construction projects, engineers help to minimize the risk of fire-related incidents and protect the lives and property of building occupants.
