Integrated fire strategies and system designs — from compartmentation and escape routes to sprinklers, detection and alarm.

Engineer checking a sprinkler valve

We design the fire and life safety systems of a building as one strategy. Compartmentation, means of escape and evacuation are planned together with suppression, detection and emergency systems, so each design fits the building and meets the codes that apply to it.

When you need it

  • A new project at concept or detailed design stage
  • A fire strategy for a complex or mixed-use building
  • Suppression or detection systems for special hazards
  • An independent review of another designer's fire package
