Smoke Control Systems
Our experienced staff of engineers and technicians has earned a solid reputation for solving facility, corporate, and governmental smoke movement and smoke control system engineering problems with state-of-the-art scientific, engineering and decision-analysis techniques and technologies.
Computer models often play an important role during the design phase by enabling the prediction of hot smoke and toxic gas movement through a building.
Our staff develop these CFD models prior to building construction to evaluate the smoke control systems performance.
Through pre-construction modeling, system performance can be refined and optimized prior to the procurement and installation of equipment - often resulting in substantial cost savings.
Mechanical Smoke Extract Systems
Mechanical Smoke Extract Systems aid the safe escape of occupants and allow adequate access for firefighters.
In the event of a fire, mechanical smoke extract systems offer many benefits as they remove smoke from the building and aid occupants escape and permit improved access for firefighting services.
Mechanical Smoke Extract Systems consist of an extract shaft that serves the common corridor and / or lobby.
If smoke is detected within a protected lobby, only the fire damper to the smoke shaft on the fire floor will open (all other dampers will remain shut).
At the same time the vent at the head of the staircase will open allowing the smoke to be removed and make up air for the smoke extraction system.
The fan at the top of the mechanical smoke shaft extracts the smoke and prevents migration of smoke into the adjacent compartments.
Natural Smoke Extract Systems
Natural Smoke Vent Systems use natural air flows to remove smoke.
This can be achieved by opening windows or vents, an automatic opening vent (AOV) or where there is no external wall, a vertical smoke shaft.
Natural Smoke Vent Systems provide a reliable and cost-effective method of meeting the requirements of Approved Document B.
In the event of a fire, smoke detectors will activate the natural smoke venting system on that floor.
This creates a natural air flow to purge smoke from the building and exhaust it into the atmosphere, offering a safe means of escape for occupants, with greater visibility and access for fire fighters.
