Building & Fire Code Analysis:

--> Research and identify appropriate requirements based on each project's distinctive situation;
--> Prepare code equivalencies;
--> Develop innovation solutions that reduces the time and cost of design and construction;
--> Integrate various fire protection, life safety, and security building systems into a comprehensive package.

Exiting Analysis:

--> Review of architectural drawings for compliance with the exiting requirements of Building and Fire Codes;
--> Conduct detailed exit calculations and diagrams;
--> Develop alternative innovative solutions to complex exiting conditions.

Computerized Fire Modeling:

--> Perform fire growth and smoke development calculations using computer fire models, e.g., FPETool, CFAST, FDS, etc. for fire investigations and to determine and develop the most appropriate method(s) to mitigate a facility's fire and life safety risk;
--> Calculate fuel loads;
--> Conduct timed egress analysis.

Accessibility & ADA Code Compliance Services:

--> Audit new and existing properties, review design documents, and develop design approaches to comply with accessibility code requirements.

Negotiations with Authorities Having Jurisdiction:

--> Convene technical discussions with building and fire officials to fully explain a project's distinctive approach, compliance and alleviation of code requirements;
--> Obtain acceptance of Authority Having Jurisdiction.

Due Diligence Surveys:

--> Conduct field audits of new and existing facilities for building and fire code and ADA compliance;
--> Provide site selection support including investigating undeveloped sites for fire protection/building code criteria and available water supply for fire protection purposes.  

Analysis of Fire Code Requirements for Hazardous Materials & Chemicals:

--> Determination of allowable inventory levels; commodity compatibility and compartmentation;
--> Calculate explosion-venting requirements;
--> Determine fire detection and suppression systems design criteria; 
--> Prepare and maintain inventory control databases.

Codes & Standards Monitoring Services:

--> Represent clients at the various local, state and national building and fire codes and standards making proceedings;
--> Prepare summary reports of changes and actions.
