Fire Protection Systems Engineering

What Is Fire Protection Engineering?

Fire protection engineering focuses on minimizing the risk associated with fire with the goal of protecting people, property and the environment. It is traditionally accomplished through several different systems that work in tandem to bolster building safety through fire detection, suppression, and mitigation capabilities. As each building is unique and therefore comes with its own set of safety design challenges, risks, and permit requirements, a well engineered fire protection solution will not only ensure required systems and documentation that demonstrate compliance of applicable Fire Code and standards, but consequently establish effective and efficient safeguards for occupants and assets.

Fire Protection Systems

Great Lakes Fire Consulting And Engineering specializes in developing and designing professionally engineered fire protection systems, including alarm and detection systems and fire suppression and sprinkler systems. Each project is tailored specifically for your building’s code and standard requirements and includes proper documentation required to demonstrate compliance to regulatory authorities during inspection.

Fire detection & Alarm
Systems

Alarm and detection systems are the first line of defence when it comes to minimizing bodily injury and property damage in the event of a fire. Components of these systems including smoke detectors, fire alarms and heat sensors serve to identify and alert to the presence of a fire and providing as much time as possible for effective responsive action. Our alarm and detection systems are designed and tailored to your building's distinctive and unique requirements, ensuring safety standards are met or exceeded.

Fire Suppression &
Sprinkler Systems

Containing, suppressing, or if possible, completely extinguishing a fire once it has occurred is a critical step in injury and damage control. Sprinkler systems are the most commonly utilized method of fire suppression due to their practical effectiveness when properly employed in buildings. Our sprinkler systems are designed by engineers for reliability, efficiency, and code compliance, from drafting stages to finished installation.
