Passive fire design and peer review

The best way to protect your property from fire damage is to install the right passive fire systems at the initial design stage.

Passive fire protection is built into a building’s structure to provide stability, as well as into walls and floors to separate the building into areas of manageable risk – or compartments.These areas are designed not only to restrict the growth and spread of fire, heat and smoke to a single compartment, but to protect a building’s assets and critical structural elements. They also protect escape routes and provide vital escape time for occupants in the case of a fire.Our passive fire protection specialists offer performance based and passive fire design and peer review of designs for new builds, as well as assessments and recommendations for existing buildings.
