Fire Engineering Solutions – Performance Based Design (BS 7974)
At MAF Associates, we provide innovative Fire Engineering Solutions that incorporate Performance Based Design (PBD) in accordance with BS 7974. Our approach leverages advanced engineering principles to develop customized fire safety strategies tailored to the unique requirements of your building project.
What is Performance Based Design?
Performance Based Design is a proactive method that allows for the evaluation of fire safety using engineering principles rather than solely relying on prescriptive codes. This flexible approach enables us to address specific project needs while ensuring that fire safety objectives are met effectively and efficiently.
Our Fire Engineering Solutions Include:
- Comprehensive Fire Risk Assessments: We conduct thorough assessments to identify potential fire hazards and vulnerabilities within your design, enabling us to develop effective strategies for risk mitigation.
- Custom Fire Safety Strategies: Through detailed analysis, we create tailored fire safety solutions that optimize building performance, addressing unique factors such as occupancy type, building layout, and intended use.
- Detailed Modelling and Simulations: Utilizing state-of-the-art software and modelling techniques, we simulate fire scenarios to predict behaviour and assess the effectiveness of various fire safety measures—ensuring that designs perform as intended during a fire event.
- Regulatory Compliance: Our Fire Engineering Solutions align with relevant regulations and standards, including BS 7974, ensuring that your project meets legal requirements while achieving high safety standards.
- Collaborative Design Approach: We work alongside architects, engineers, and other stakeholders to integrate fire engineering principles seamlessly into the overall project design, promoting safety without compromising on aesthetics.
- Performance Assessment and Validation: Our team provides evidence-based assessments to validate that the proposed fire safety measures meet the required performance levels, ensuring occupant safety and building integrity.
