FIRE SAFETY ENGINEERING
Studio Fahrenheit provides an independent and expert consulting service to ensure regulatory compliance in fire safety and evacuation.
We develop fire safety strategies to reduce fire risks in buildings and ensure the safety of occupants in case of fire.
Depending on the characteristics, size and use of the building, we consider the following aspects:
-
Evacuation planning for all occupants, including those with reduced mobility, defining the means of escape, their capacity and location.
-
Ensuring fire stability and compartmentation of the building.
-
Managing the combustibility of construction materials and interior finishes to limit fire spread.
-
Preventing external fire spread to neighboring buildings and along façades.
-
Implementing technical measures such as smoke ventilation, detection and alarm systems, and automatic fire suppression systems.
-
Assessing access roads for emergency vehicles and implementing firefighting facilities for Fire Brigade.
We support you from the design or renovation phase of the building and provide a detailed safety report, submitted to the relevant authorities, to ensure full compliance with current standards and regulations.
