Service | Fire Safety Engineering
Our fire safety engineering services include high
level strategic advice using detailed bespoke
engineering analysis, Computational Fluid Dynamics
(CFD) and negotiating positive outcomes for our
clients with approvals bodies.
Our clients expect the very best fire safety advice. They look to KFS
to ensure their buildings comply with recognised standards and
guidance and that they are professionally designed to match the
ever-greater expectations for fire safety.
Our aim is to incorporate tailored fire safety engineering solutions
so that an acceptable level of safety is provided.
Fire safety engineering can incorporate the most appropriate
methods of fire protection (from a host of engineering techniques)
which will help to minimise the impact of fire on the building, take
advantage of real cost efficiencies and ultimately improve overall
resilience and safety.
Fire Safety Strategies
Bespoke fire safety strategies, produced by our fire safety engineers are developed to address the specific fire risks that
may exist within a building.
Projects gain the greatest value when we are able to work with designers to develop the strategies in alignment with early
building plans. However, we regularly provide innovative solutions in order to revise existing plans and gain approval for a
design that do not yet comply with standard fire safety codes; or when renovation work is being conducted, meaning preexisting strategies need to be reviewed and updated.
The fire strategy will refer to any fire engineering solutions
and analysis used to formulate the report’s conclusions,
such as CFD, structural fire engineering or radiation analysis
and will detail various elements as required, including:
