Consulting and Design Services

Civil and Fire Protection Engineer Services

Our team includes licensed civil and fire protection engineers with extensive industry experience. We provide expert guidance on system design, installation, and compliance with local fire codes and regulations. From residential properties to large-scale commercial and industrial projects, we ensure that your fire protection system is designed and executed with precision.

Building Surveys

EFS conducts detailed building surveys to assess fire protection needs and existing system performance. Whether you’re working on new construction or renovating an existing structure, our surveys identify potential hazards, system upgrades, and the best design approach to ensure safety and compliance. We provide actionable insights to improve fire safety, ensuring the protection of your building and its occupants.

Design-Build Assistance

We collaborate closely with architects, contractors, and developers in a design-build capacity to integrate fire protection systems seamlessly into your project. By working as part of your team, we help streamline the design and construction process, ensuring that fire protection is not only compliant but also cost-effective and well-coordinated with the overall building plan.

Density Upgrades

In environments with increased fire risk or high occupancy levels, standard fire protection systems may not be sufficient. We offer density upgrade solutions, adjusting the sprinkler system’s water flow and pressure to meet heightened safety requirements. Our expertise ensures that your fire protection system is equipped to handle more challenging environments and provide enhanced protection where needed.

Hazard Analysis

EFS performs comprehensive hazard analyses to assess fire risks in your facility. By understanding the specific hazards present, such as flammable materials or high-risk operations, we can design fire suppression systems that are precisely tailored to mitigate those risks. This customized approach minimizes the potential for fire damage and ensures your fire protection system is fit for purpose.

Water Supply Analysis

A critical component of any fire protection system is ensuring an adequate and reliable water supply. We perform water supply analyses to verify that the water pressure and flow meet the requirements for your fire protection systems. Whether you’re working with a municipal water supply or on-site water sources, we ensure that your system has the capacity to perform effectively during an emergency.

Cost and Time-Saving Design Approaches

Our team leverages its extensive experience to provide cost-effective and time-saving fire protection designs. We focus on maximizing efficiency without compromising on safety or compliance. Through innovative design approaches and value engineering, we help reduce project costs while ensuring the highest standards of fire protection.
