Our Fire Engineering Services.
01
Fire Engineering Design & Fire Strategies.
Project-specific fire engineering design and fire strategies for new developments, refurbishments and alterations. This includes first-principles and performance-based approaches where prescriptive guidance alone does not adequately address the design challenges.
03
FRAEW / PAS 9980 Assessments.
Specialist Fire Risk Appraisals of External Walls using the PAS 9980 methodology. Support can include intrusive investigation coordination, appraisal of external wall construction, remediation advice and post-remediation review where required.
05
Independent Fire Engineering Peer Reviews.
Independent review of fire strategies, technical reports and engineering proposals prepared by others. Reviews examine the design approach, assumptions and supporting evidence, giving clients and project teams additional technical assurance.
02
Retrospective Fire Strategies & Design Appraisals.
Review of existing buildings where the original fire strategy is missing, incomplete or no longer reflects the building’s layout and use. Appraisals identify the fire safety approach, gaps in supporting information and any further investigations or improvements required.
04
Assessment of compartment walls, floors, service penetrations, fire stopping and associated passive fire protection. Surveys provide clear defect reporting and remedial recommendations, with access limitations and further investigation needs identified.
06
Structural Fire Engineering Appraisals.
Appraisal of structural fire protection requirements, fire resistance periods, existing protection systems and proposed remedial solutions, coordinated with the structural engineer and wider project team where appropriate.
