Fire Engineering Design: For Business Not For Regulations
Building designers have more freedom of expression than ever before, thanks to fire engineering design. With a growing trend towards functional design and innovative solutions to fire issues, fire engineering puts safety at the centre of every design from the very beginning. With such methods, a designer can create the building you need with the appearance you want and make it fire safe in the process. However, with so many codes and fire safety regulations to take into account, not to mention innovations in fire prevention methods and materials, any design team could always use some expert advice!
The FSC: At the Heart of your Design Team
Right from the start, the FSC can be there to help you. Our team work with your designers to integrate measures into even the most cutting edge building to ensure fire safety regulations are met or even exceeded!
These measures include:
- Smoke containment methods
- Safe egress routes, including time rather than distance based solutions
- Temperature rise criteria for materials
- Analysis of building stress levels
- Fire suppression measures
- Structural fire separation opportunities
The FSC: Assessing Your Designs
Perhaps you already have plans drawn up for a new building or the refurbishment of an old one? The FSC can assess your building design at the architect's drawings stage and advise on aspects such as:
- Design methodology
- Fire safety design
- Aspects that do not comply with the regulations or fire codes
- Fire detection systems
- Fire suppression systems
- Contractor compliance issues
Make the FSC the heart of your design team and relax knowing that your design fire safety checking is in experienced and professional hands.
