Building Engineering Solutions

Building fire engineering is an essential and complex field that focuses on designing buildings with fire safety in mind. Fire engineers will use their expertise to provide advice and guidance on implementing fire safety measures to a building’s design. At its core, building fire engineering is about protecting people, property, and the environment from the devastating effects of fires. 

At Appraise Fire Engineering (AFE Consultants), our qualified team of fire engineers have the necessary knowledge, skills and technology to provide you with practical building engineering solutions that meet your needs whilst also ensuring compliance with relevant codes and fire safety regulations.

What is building fire engineering?

Building fire engineering is the practice of designing and implementing fire safety measures for buildings in order to minimise the risk of fire and ensure the safety of residents. This involves considering a wide range of factors, including the materials used in construction, the layout and design of the building, and the behaviour of fires in different environments. 

Fire engineers may also suggest implementing fire barriers to a building. They are designed to prevent the spread of fire and smoke throughout a structure. Fire barrier systems are typically made up of fire-resistant materials such as gypsum board, mineral wool insulation, and steel framing.

The goal of building fire engineering is to create structures that are not only safe but also functional and aesthetically pleasing.
