What Is Fire Engineering?
Fire engineering uses scientific and engineering principles to assess fire safety within buildings and develop solutions that support safe building design, occupant protection and regulatory compliance.
Fire engineering is commonly used where standard guidance such as Approved Document B may not fully apply or where alternative fire safety solutions are required due to building design, layout or operational requirements.
A fire engineering approach allows buildings to achieve suitable levels of fire safety while supporting practical and efficient building design.
