OUR SERVICES FOR CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTORS
The tendering process
- main fire engineering principles
- fire engineering consulting
Draft and project planning phase
- a statement of the main fire engineering principles and alternatives (including cost savings with performance-based fire safety design)
- evaluation of cost saving without compromising fire safety
- comparison of automatic fire extinguishing systems
- fire engineering consulting
Building permit phase
- Fire safety design according to preset fire classes and numerical values (traditional “use of dimensioning tables“)
- identification of cost-saving targets with performance-based fire safety design – without compromising fire safety
- fire engineering consulting
- expert statements
- expert and external inspections (MRL § 150)
Implementation planning phase
- expert statements
- expert and external inspections (MRL § 150)
- cost-saving performance-based fire safety design and building permit changes
- design of automatic fire extinguishing systems
Construction phase
- supervision during construction
- expert and external inspections (MRL § 150)
- construction site fire safety plans
Training and advice
- application and interpretation of fire regulations
- advice related to construction products
WHAT IS THE BENEFIT OF A FIRE SAFETY DESIGNER?
Cost-effective solutions to fire engineering problems and consulting during construction are our core competencies. For example, in PCM (Project and Construction Management) and EPCM (Engineering Procurement Construction Management) -projects, it is often profitable to use performance-based fire safety design, which can be used to find cheaper alternatives and optimized structures without compromising fire safety. A change permit can be applied for in terms of performance-based design, if needed.
If necessary, we prepare third-party statements on fire engineering plans for sites that deviate from the dimensioning tables of fire safety regulation, individual plans or reports related to fire safety technology or fire calculations, and solutions that deviate from the CE marking or type approval. You can also get fire stop plans, fire sprinkler designs and fire alarm plans through us.
Our service during the construction phase
With supervision during construction, it is possible to avoid errors related to the implementation of fire engineering plans that occur during construction and to ensure that the construction runs smoothly within the schedule. This also avoids unnecessary additional costs.
With the help of expert inspections, the client and the main contractor of the construction project receive, among other things, information that firestops and fire protections have been installed in accordance with the plans and requirements. We have comprehensive product knowledge about fire stopping products combined with long-term experience in their implementation.
If necessary, we also draw up plans for the fire safety of the construction site, guidance of site fire safety, personnel safety, and rescue service operations. Plans are based on the identification and anticipation of safety risks at various stages of the site and include, among other things, the plans of temporary fire compartments and escape routes.
Safe procedures are compiled into clear employee orientating guidelines to prevent fires during construction work.
