Education
Schools are checked for evacuation safety first and foremost, based on clear guidelines set out in the Buildings Decree. The size of the school is one of the most important aspects in establishing fire and evacuation safety criteria, but other issues can also affect fire safety. For example, server rooms represent an additional hazard, as do computer rooms and rooms containing equipment for technical education. A risk assessment ensures that the appropriate organisational and technical measures are taken. We will provide input specific to your sector and give you a clear idea of the purchase and maintenance costs, so avoiding surprises.
INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS FOR YOUR SECTOR
OUR APPROACH
Fire safety always consists of the right balance between Intervention, Installation and Instruction, with you at the center. We explain step by step what our Installation-process contains.
RISK ASSESSMENT & ACTION PLAN
The first step is to make a risk assessment based on architectural, systems and organisational aspects. Every building has its own risks, which we specify. The report identifies possible solutions in general terms plus an estimate of the cost if required. The solutions are worked out in the action plan, which also describes the implementation in the process or organisation.
PRELIMINARY DESIGN, CALCULATION & ENGINEERING
After approval of the action plan, the design work can begin. The final cost estimate (quotation) is also made at this stage. Once the quotation has been agreed, we can start on the detailed design. The project assignment is signed by both the client and the contractor. In many cases, the drawings and design calculations also need to be approved by inspection bodies.
INSTALLATION, COMMISSIONING & CERTIFICATION
Clear agreements are made regarding planning, lead times, implementation and delivery. At the end of the project, we will submit a maintenance agreement for one or more years. Fire safety systems are usually delivered with a certificate. Sometimes that is just a product certificate, but often there is also an inspection certificate from an accredited inspection body. The inspection involves checking that the system matches the approved design and is functional.
