Fire Protection Design

Life safety systems that protect people, property, and operations.

Fire protection engineering is about life safety first — but it is also about property protection, business continuity, and code compliance. Our designs integrate sprinkler systems, fire alarms, smoke control, and special hazard suppression into a cohesive strategy.

We perform hydraulic calculations for sprinkler systems to ensure adequate water density and pressure at the most remote design area. Our layouts account for architectural ceiling types, structural obstructions, and seismic bracing requirements.

Fire alarm designs include smoke detector spacing, notification appliance placement, and mass notification integration. We coordinate with security and building automation systems for supervised shutdown sequences and elevator recall.

Our Process
01

Hazard Classification

Classify occupancy hazards per NFPA 13 to determine design densities and system types.

02

Water Supply Analysis

Verify available flow and pressure from city mains, tanks, or fire pumps.

03

System Layout

Place sprinklers, pipe routes, valves, and risers with hydraulic balance.

04

Alarm Design

Specify detection, notification, and control panel layouts with sequence of operations.

05

Permitting

Submit to the fire marshal, respond to comments, and obtain approval for construction.
