Fire simulation

Numerical simulation of fire and smoke spread using the Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS). The scope is agreed with your consultancy in the context of the overall fire safety design.

Potential assessment objectives

• Fire and smoke spread inside buildings
• Thermal exposure of structural elements and other objects
• Temperature exposure of outdoor assets, such as overhead lines
• Comparison of different smoke ventilation options
• Temperature and visibility conditions along escape routes
• Performance of systems such as pressurisation and sprinkler systems
• Analysis and reporting for inclusion in your fire safety design documentation

Input data, modelling assumptions and assessment criteria are agreed for each project.
