Office schemes often require the fire design team to ensure that the building's distinctive design aspirations remain intact whilst maximising the available floor space and dealing with complex multi-occupancy evacuation requirements.

Thanks to our innovative approach, our office schemes achieve all these goals with fire strategies that incorporate increased travel distances, fewer stair cores, reduced fire ratings, less compartmentation and smaller smoke shaft sizes to reduce build costs, increase saleable space and minimise disruption to non-fire zones whilst maintaining high safety standards. It also makes it possible to incorporate atria or free-flowing spaces within the structure without the need for expensive systems.
