Automatic Fire Sprinkler Design
Using the most current information and products available, our team develops sprinkler system designs that provide the highest benefit-to-cost ratio. Early system design allows for complete coordination of the sprinkler system with other design disciplines, limiting potential field issues and costly changes or delays. Our services cover any facility occupancy, including residential, retail, commercial, and industrial.
Fire Alarm System Design
By keeping abreast of new products, systems, and software, our designers ensure that you utilize the best technology available. As an independent design firm, we have no proprietary interest in any manufacturer's products, allowing us to recommend the best and most cost-effective materials to meet your needs.
Special Hazard Design
Our designers and engineers have experience in protection design of virtually all types of special hazards, ranging from electrical substations, to offshore oil platforms.
Project Budget Forecasting
We provide accurate cost estimates for fire and life safety systems with minimal project information. We can also identify potential areas for savings by using alternate materials and construction methods.
Protection Plan Review
Systems installation requires the preparation of installation documents. We provide a comprehensive review of a contractor's proposed installation design, materials, and methods for compliance with owner's specifications and design criteria, limiting potential construction delays due to design inadequacies.
