FRM's staff of registered professional engineers has the skills and experience
to listen to the needs of it's clients, to then evaluate and develop fire
and life safety objectives required to support those needs, to ensure acceptance
of the selected strategy by code officials, and finally to provide design,
engineering, and technical support services necessary to meet established
objectives.
Develop fire/explosion protection and life safety objectives
Development of fire protection systems and design criteria and specifications
Evaluating structural fire resistance
Evaluation of fire load & hazardous content
Support of construction management
Provide resolution and documentation on code equivalency issues
Fire Hazards Analysis Services
FRM uses a variety of engineering tools and evaluation methods as part of
the Fire Hazards Analysis process, including large- and small-scale fire
and flammability test data and computer fire modeling and simulation. FRM
also has significant fire research and experimentation experience in developing
actual fire test data to support specific validation efforts. Examples of
applications where the Fire Hazards Analysis process has proven most valuable:
Fire and explosion risk assessment and quantification
Smoke movement and control analyses
Life safety and emergency egress analyses
Protection of special hazards/materials and industrial processes
Municipality/Fire Department pre-fire tactical planning
Surveys, Inspections & Construction Management Support
FRM's services extend beyond the typical design and engineering functions
performed in our offices, to providing on-site engineering and technical
support. The surveys and inspections performed by FRM engineers and systems
specialists provide our clients with increased assurance concerning the
proper design and reliability of the fire/explosion and life safety systems.
Services include:
Site investigations to evaluate project-specific design requirements
Code compliance reviews
Due diligence inspections
General life safety and egress assessments
Construction/project management from conceptual design through acceptance
testing of all installed fire/explosion protection systems.
