Commercial
Office towers, mixed-use developments and tenant improvements. Coordinated fire safety that works with the architectural intent.
Built on safety.
Designed for life.
Fire protection engineering and code consulting
for projects across Western Canada.
Calgary, Alberta / Western CanadaExplore the practice
Fire protection
engineering.
We help architects, owners and project teams resolve fire safety requirements without losing sight of the building they want to create.
We bring fire protection and life safety into the conversation early. Working alongside architects, owners and project teams, we turn complex requirements into practical decisions, from the first drawing to the life of the building.
How we workTechnical
expertise.
Code consulting, system design and technical support, coordinated with your project team.
01Building & fire code consulting
Understand the requirements before they become constraints. We review building use, construction, fire separations and exiting to establish a clear direction for the design team.
- Building code analysis & design reviews
- Alternative solution development
- Coordination with approving authorities
02Fire protection systems
Make protection part of the building, from the outset. Our approach connects suppression, detection and alarm design with the space, its hazards and the people who use it.
- Sprinkler & suppression system design
- Fire alarm & detection strategies
- Water supply & hydraulic assessment
03Performance-based design
Unconventional buildings need carefully reasoned solutions. We use fire engineering analysis to evaluate design options, document assumptions and demonstrate how safety objectives can be achieved.
- Fire scenarios & engineering analysis
- Occupant movement & egress studies
- Technical support for alternative solutions
04Smoke control & modelling
Understand how smoke may move through a building and how systems should respond. Analysis informs coordinated smoke management strategies for atria, tall buildings and complex spaces.
- Smoke movement analysis
- Smoke control design criteria
- System coordination & test planning
05Existing buildings & commissioning
A building’s needs change over time. We assess existing conditions, identify gaps and help teams plan upgrades, with practical support through construction, testing and handover.
- Fire & life safety assessments
- Renovation & change-of-use reviews
- Commissioning & integrated testing support
Buildings we
work with.
Fire safety strategies shaped by the use, occupancy and operational demands of each building.
Residential
Multi-family housing, high-rise living and conversions. Life safety considered from shared spaces to the way people leave a building.
Public & institutional
Education, healthcare and civic buildings. Strategies shaped by varied occupants, complex layouts and essential daily operations.
Industrial
Industrial facilities, storage and critical infrastructure. Protection informed by the hazards, processes and demands of each site.
Based in Calgary.
Working across
Western Canada.
From design
to handover.
We establish the requirements early, work through the design with your team, and support the transition into a working building.
01Define
Scope & requirements
Start with the building, the people and the project goals. Establish the applicable requirements, identify risks and agree on a clear scope.
02Develop
Design & coordination
Bring options to the table. Coordinate with the wider design team and document the reasoning, so decisions stand up to review.
03Deliver
Construction & handover
Support the transition from drawings to a working building. Review, respond and help verify the fire safety strategy through handover.
