Fire Fighting System Design Basics (MEP)

The design of any fire-protection system is an exact science that takes into account a building’s use, occupancy, footprint, and even its other installed systems.

Planning for fire protection involves an integrated approach in which system designers need to analyze building components as a total package. In most cases, the analysis needs to go beyond basic code compliance and the owner’s minimum legal responsibilities for providing protection.
