Design and advice

Design based on practice

Most of our designs are fire protection systems for new buildings, but we can also be called in to design extensions to existing systems, any excavations needed or to brainstorm on plans for cooling water or gas piping, for example. Piping is much more than just a line on paper. We draw on our long experience to create a clear and fail-safe design that uses the right materials at a realistic price.

Space for service and maintenance

Designing and building a system is the first step. Servicing and maintaining the system is the second. We already think about service and maintenance in the design phase. For example, we think about where we can place large connections for flushing.

And where there are enough system valves to shut off small sections of the fire mains during repairs. By thinking about these types of issues in the design phase, there will be no unexpected hitches when maintenance is needed.

Customisation

A fire protection system for sea locks is completely different to those for petrochemical plants. There are no standard solutions and a good, thoroughly thought through design is essential. Among the programmes we use for our design are AutoCAD and Revit. We closely follow developments such as BIM.
