Fire Protection Engineering Consultants
The Fairfax County Office of the Fire Marshal (FMO) encourages the use of fire protection engineers (FPE’s) on architectural design teams for all building projects. Historically it has been found that the use of fire protection engineers from the very beginning of a project improves the fire and life safety code compliance of the design and reduces the number of comments generated from plan reviews conducted by FMO engineering staff. This in turn reduces the number of plan resubmissions and generally decreases the time it takes to obtain final approval of the plans from this office.
We highly recommend use of FPE’s on all high-rise buildings and other complex buildings including shopping malls, places of assembly, nursing homes, hospitals, day care facilities, buildings with storage planned to exceed 12 feet in height (high-piled storage), and buildings using or storing moderate to large amounts of hazardous or flammable materials. We also recommend use of FPE’s to consult on all fire protection systems contractors’ shop drawing submittals for these types of buildings.
