Fire engineering calculations
Innovation, reliability and sustainability
Fire engineering calculations are an essential stage in ensuring the safety and success of the project. It is a process that combines scientific progress, technical knowledge and modern technology to accurately assess fire risks and ensure that safety measures work effectively. These calculations not only help to protect human lives and property, but also allow to optimize the use of resources thus reducing the impact on the environment.
UAB Poliprojektas follows the principles of sustainability, developing solutions that not only meet the highest safety standards, but also conserve natural resources. Having years of experience and cutting-edge computing tools, our team offers reliable and greener solutions for even the most complex projects.
Our calculations:
1. Fire scenario simulation (FDS)
We use Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) software to accurately model the spread of fire, the movement of smoke and the impact of heat on building structures and people. This simulation allows to:
- Identify the most dangerous areas and provide solutions for their protection.
- Optimize the layout and efficiency of fire protection systems.
- Reduce the likelihood of unforeseen risks and so ensure maximum safety of the project.
2. Calculations of resistance of structures to fire
The calculations of the resistance of the structures to fire enable checking and ensuring that the structures of the building maintain their stability and functionality even in extreme temperatures. These calculations are especially important when the compliance of the building design with the essential fire safety requirement of the building is determined by using fire engineering calculations.
The purpose of these calculations is to ensure that the structures meet all the safety requirements and guarantee the reliability of the building even in case of fire.
3. Determining of the fire load category
Determining of the fire load category allows to accurately assess the potential danger posed by the materials used or stored on the site and their flammability properties. We calculate the potential fire load in terms of the amount of heat (MJ/m²) that can be released during the burning.
4. Analysis of evacuation parameters
We use advanced software – Pathfinder – to accurately simulate various evacuation scenarios, taking into account the layout of the site, the number of people and the dynamics of their movements.
We model the movement of people during evacuation, calculate the optimal widths of evacuation routes and passages and other parameters to ensure quick and safe evacuation.
5. Evaluation of smoke removal parameters
We design smoke removal systems tailored to the specific site so as to ensure reliable smoke control:
- Natural ventilation solutions.
- Mechanical systems.
- Flow fan systems for smoke and CO removal in car storage facilities.
6. Explosion risk analysis
We calculate the potential explosion overpressure and identify dangerous concentrations of explosive materials. This process allows to:
- Select the appropriate safety features.
- Ensure that the site complies with the ATEX requirements for explosive areas.
