Our tailored Fire Engineering Strategies provide customised approaches to fire safety, integrating advanced engineering principles to create robust fire protection systems tailored to your specific needs.

A Fire Engineering Strategy plan from AB Fire Solutions outlines the key areas relating to fire management, from detection and alarm, to the occupant evacuation plan.

This report draws on the fire risk assessment to deliver a plan summarising the key objectives and requirements to ensure the safe evacuation of all building occupants.

The purpose of the fire engineering strategy is to serve as a guide for managing a potential fire threat to a building, by looking at the following key elements:

Legislation Requirements

Solutions based on the layout of the building to show compliance with the Building Regulations.

Means of Escape

Travel distances, escape within apartments and common areas, evacuation for disabled occupants, number of escape routes, and final discharge widths based on occupancy load factors.

Fire Spread and Control

Fire protection required throughout the building to prevent internal and external fire spread, including linings, unprotected areas, and external wall construction.

Construction

Fire resistance of materials, cavity barriers, compartmentation efficacy and fire suppressant systems.

Fire Service Access

External vehicle access, hydrants, access points, firefighting lifts, internal access, and fire mains, in compliance with Building Regulations and current Local Fire Authority requirements.

Fire Safety Management

Key management issues, planning and evacuation control.
