Fire Engineering Services

Whether you are building new, extending an existing building or simply re-fitting or re-organising, involving a fire professional in the early stages of design can, and often does save money. We offer a pragmatic solution, and work closely with you for the entire duration of the project. We will provide weekly reports to you whilst we are under contract, so you know what stage of the project we are at.

The formal process of submitting plans for approval to Building Control and the Fire Service will ensure that minimum standards are met but these authorities are not obliged to inform you of any over provision shown on the submission.

By considering suitable alternative fire safety solutions you could save substantial costs, both with installation and ongoing maintenance.

Fire safety engineering is not a precise discipline. Using the skills of fire engineers at design stage of a new project will provide you with fire safety strategies, and solutions based on scenario analysis. For any scenario you are trying to consider in building design it is possible to calculate some responses, but the level of accuracy is only as good as the design assumptions.

The logic our consultants apply to design considerations will provide you the client with a cost effective, dynamic design that will meet all code compliance.

So if your thinking of employing a consultant to help you design a new building, or even renovate an existing building call us today on 0800 644 7200 and let us design the engineered solutions for you in accordance with Building Regulations Part ‘B’and BS9999:2008 ‘Code of practice for fire safety in the design, Management and use of Buildings, and other codes such as BS7974:2001 Application of fire safety engineering principles to the design of buildings.

Our staff have years of experience in applying design codes to new and existing build projects, Their attention to detail, and their commitment to customer satisfaction has gained us respect as a young, up and coming consultancy. We undertake small and large projects throughout the United Kingdom.

In addition to ‘fire engineering services we also carry out:

Building Fire Stopping Surveys

Every building must be designed and constructed in such a way that in the event of an outbreak of fire within the building, the unseen spread of fire and smoke within concealed spaces in its structure and fabric is Inhibited

Yes ideally so. Though not all buildings are designed at building construction stage to restrict the spread of fire and products of combustion.  Sadly many buildings have been compromised due to the activitites of contractors.

This is where Icarus Fire Safety who are members and specifiers with NAPFIS (Nationwide Association of Passive Fire Installers and Specifiers) can assist you by carrying out a building survey, one of our highly trained passive installers, and specifiers will visit your site inspect for compromised compartmentation issues and provide you with a cost effective competitive quotation to install passive fire stopping materials and propriatery fire sealants.

We will issue you with a Passive fire installation certificate at the end of the contract, which will be independantly assessed for suitability of install by an independant assessor.
