Fire Engineers
A fire engineer is a specialist in fire safety and prevention, focusing on the design, implementation, and assessment of fire protection systems to ensure buildings and structures are safeguarded from fire risks. Their responsibilities include evaluating fire hazards, designing fire detection and suppression systems, conducting fire risk assessments, and ensuring compliance with fire safety regulations and building standards. Fire engineers also play a crucial role in emergency planning, fire prevention strategies, and advising on materials and construction methods to mitigate fire risks. They collaborate with architects, building surveyors, and construction teams to develop comprehensive fire safety solutions for both new and existing buildings.
