Morrison Hershfield’s team of fire protection systems specialists has an exceptional mix of practical design and field and research experience, and is uniquely qualified to provide a full range of fire protection engineering services. Our involvement on key projects, studies and North American committees that develop fire protection regulations allows us to leverage current technology as applied to building information and content management systems. This enables us to provide sound advice that helps our clients meet their life safety systems performance objectives.
Building owners and managers commonly experience problems related to their life safety systems. These include nuisance alarms, high maintenance costs, and suspect system performance, all of which result in occupant complaints and even serious life safety risk. Monies available to resolve these issues are becoming more difficult to secure and allocate appropriately, and the Authorities Having Jurisdiction prescribe that these systems be fully operational 100% of the time.
