Fire Protection Construction Management
Fire protection systems are complicated by numerous interfaces with other building systems, requiring coordination of system performance and operations to ensure building safety. Fire protection construction management involves overseeing the planning, design, and construction of fire protection systems in buildings and other structures to ensure their compliance with fire codes and standards, as well as their efficacy in concert with other building systems.
TERPconsulting’s fire protection construction management consulting services require input from architects, engineers, contractors, and other stakeholders to ensure that the fire protection systems are designed and installed to meet both the jurisdictional and industry’s applicable codes and standards. TERPconsulting begins the fire protection construction management process with a thorough analysis of the building or structure’s layout and occupancy to determine the most effective and efficient methods of fire protection. This assessment includes a review of fire alarms, sprinkler systems, extinguishers, and other suppression systems. TERPconsulting also oversees the initial inspection and testing of these systems to ensure they are functioning correctly.
Fire protection construction management is a critical component of any life and safety plan and ensures buildings and structures are protected and compliant with fire codes and standards.
