Fire System Design: Getting It Right from the Start Dated – August 2024

Fire safety isn’t just about installing alarms and sprinklers—it starts with proper fire system design. Poor planning can lead to non-compliance, costly retrofits, and increased fire risks. That’s why it’s essential to get fire system design right from the beginning.

What Goes into Fire System Design?

Fire system design must consider various building factors:

  • Building type & occupancy – Different structures require different fire protection strategies.
  • Compliance with Australian Standards – Fire systems must meet AS 2118, AS 1670, AS 2419, and other regulations.
  • Integration of Wet, Dry & Passive Fire Protection – A complete fire safety solution includes detection, suppression, and containment.
  • Common Mistakes in Fire System Design

    Many issues arise when fire protection is an afterthought rather than a priority. Common mistakes include:

    • Installing systems that don’t meet building codes.
    • Failing to integrate fire safety into the overall design.
    • Overlooking passive fire protection elements.
