Fire safety is one of the major regulatory hurdles for new and existing buildings. Compliance with the prescriptive requirements of the BCA and associated Australian standards often limits designers in achieving their vision and goals for a building project.
The building code requirements are generic and conservative in nature as they are intended to cover all possible design scenarios and are often based on the assumed worst case.
At Defire, we use a performance based approach to customise a package of alternative fire safety measures for a design, allowing our clients to achieve their objectives but still maintain the level of fire safety required by the building code and approval authorities.
Our services include:
Performance solutions related to fire
Fire safety BCA reviews
Fire risk assessments
Evacuation modelling and evacuation strategies for special events
Fire safety upgrade strategies for existing buildings
Fire safety strategies for tunnels and underground facilities
Peer reviews and advice to clients
